25 Famous People You Didn’t Know Were From Sullivan County, New York

I wasn’t that great as a student in high school, but that’s because I wanted to be a musician, and I spent all my time practicing piano.

We all have ways of saving some money, some a little more unique than others. When it comes to water, especially drinking water, things could get costly. For those in areas with sulfur water or higher levels of contaminants, sometimes bottled is the only option. Personally, I prefer tap water and always have. Sure, I won't turn down a bottle of purified 'fancy" water if it's free.
