Inspirational Friday

A Texas man invented a machine that turns air into water. The machine makes 5 to 7 gallons of water per day depending on the humidity in the air. The water is filtered without metals or any pollinates in it. The name of the machine is Drought-Master and Willie Nelson owns 50 of them. It only cost 4 cents a day to run.
