More on Tea

my last real vice. sometimes i get tired of the loose leaf ritual--sort of buddhist tired in that if i can't get my
favorite brand from the far away indian grocer's, i'm sulky. attatchment. expectation the cause of misery and
all that "that which you own...own's you" kind of stuff. so occasionally i condescend to the bag. then get bothered
by the fact that the better quality bag teas are exorbitantly priced. so i slither further into the gutter and buy
a supermarket brand tea--which invariably leads to anything literally from four bags onward in one mug.
i've gone up to 10 before realizing how ridiculous it all is. so in my latest quest to use one bag like everyone else,
i found.....

THE NUTSACK

yes, it's a collasal bag of either lipton's or supermarket brand tea made for the express purpose of creating a
pitcher of american style iced tea. meant to steap all day in a big jug after the initial warm dose of water, then
mixed with ice/lemon/sugar. this ridiculous bag swells to the size of a, well--lets say i was using two for a time,
then laughed at the prospect, and now i'm down to one. one dirty great nutsack to make my cuppa.

my last vice. 24 in a pack, about three cups a day, but now i can say i only take one tea bag--nice

Here are the primary components of my diet the last five years or so. Except for soda, chocolate and junk food when I'm out and about.



My tea isn't strong. But I make up for it in quantity.

nice, are you sure you're not british

i'd say more but my computer has crashed no less than five times--or was it 6, when trying to respond to you/Richie/Maija.

so we'll leave it at 'nice'

better hurry and send this
