California is in a serious drought right now, and the water
situation is getting pretty bad here. But most of California’s water comes from
other sources, and other states are competing for the same water. So with that
in mind, I thought it might be interesting to have the states fight it out for
who gets the water in a Hunger Games-style
death battle called: The Thirst Games. And whoever wins gets all the water, and
the other states have to make due with Diet 7-Up (or some type of soft drink).
Of course, there is another alternative to this death
struggle, and that’s the Chinatown
solution: California could invade Arizona and Nevada, conquer them both, and
incorporate them into California. Then California would get all the water, and
they could just choose which cities get priority. (That refers to Chinatown the movie, that is.)
Or we could just have a surfing competition to see which
state gets it. Who could object to that: the states without a shoreline? That’s
not California’s fault if Arizona and Nevada didn’t choose to be on the ocean!
