Car that runs on water 

Common topic of discussion for Steven Hyde (Danny Masterson) on "That 70's Show" while in the circle smoking pot.

Basically what he's talking about is a car where you put water in the gas tank instead of gas. The demand for water would be so high that everyone would buy all the water, leaving us with nothing to drink except beer-and the government hides the car from the public because they know that beer will set us free.
So their's this car that runs on water.....

That’s a mean cup of water. 

That’s a mean cup of water — A mytho-legendary quote attributed to The Man in Black himself Johnny Cash when he performed live at San Quentin Prison.

Many people were against his performance in prisons especially prison guard unions who thought that a Johnny Cash prison performances would quite probably incite riots.

What actually happened was that Cash said: “If there are any guards still talking to me could you bring me a cup of water”.

After he finished drinking it, Cash destroyed and crushed the tin cup in which his water had been provided. Then he sang a song about the uselessness of San Quentin Prison and theories of rehabilitation called: San Quentin.

His Johnny Cash Live at San Quentin Album was certified gold on August 12th 1969 and in spite of the documented evidence to the contrary, the legend of the “ That’s a mean cup of water” quote is more powerful than what actually occurred.

But that’s the thing about a good and well told mytho-legendary story: it’s never what actually happened; it’s what SHOULD HAVE HAPPENED!!!!
That’s a mean cup of water. I felt tough like I’ve seen a thing or two; but I’ve never seen anything as hard as the cup of water I just drank!!!!
