What is in your cup? - Page 1409

Dude that is a tea bag. The only thing worse would be a tea ball.

Off to pick up the baby boy.

I'm sure the leaf tea enthusiasts around here would be most reluctant to wear that T-shirt!

Nothing in my cup.

Shudder. Definitely no tea bags here. (or tea balls either, though I'm not sure I agree that they're worse than bags. )

The mere thought of commercial tea bags made me go brew a second pot of Phoenix Mountain Oolong to calm my nerves.

It was homeward bound one night on the deep
Swinging in my hammock I fell asleep
I dreamed a dream and I thought it true
Concerning Franklin and his gallant crew.

With one hundred seamen he sailed away
To the frozen ocean in the month of May
To seek a passage around the pole
Where we poor seamen do sometimes go.

Through cruel hardships they mainly strove
Their ship on mountains of ice was drove
Only the Eskimo with his skin canoe
Was the only one that ever came through.

Good morning, everyone! "What day is it today?" "Well, it's today!" "Oh! My favorite day!" There is "Yorkshire" tea in my cup, rice and olives in my bowl, with an orange beside it. And a smile on my face. Could anyone ask for more?

Regarding the aforementioned T-shirt...

'nuff said.

Coffee with added Hersy Special Dark Cocoa as I work on the second lesson for a new class I started teaching, on Friday nights... on the book of Revelation (can we say freaky book?) Might be the hardest class I have taken on to teach yet! On Sunday's I am now teaching Corinthians, which should be the funest one yet cause of the great flame bait in it.

Water..Just went for a walk and need a little rest. I have no energy since I got this cold, even thought I seem to be over it I'm always tired. Might have to reach for the Bombay Sapphire, although that might send me right off to sleep and it's band practice tonight.

OK [hanging head in shame] can I redeem myself with this suggestion for the over-geeked tea connoisseur?

I thought the tea bag on the t-shirt was cute...but then I'm not a tea drinker.

(At least not yet. Still in search of the perfect tea for me.)

The Death Star theme is cute but still an evil tea ball.

I think it can annihilate any tea bag placed in the cup with it!

My tea must have been spiked with something. Jon said nice things about the new Kindles.

Quake1028 · 09-06-2012, 04:54 PM

Surely you jest!

ProfCrash · 09-06-2012, 05:25 PM

Check out the kindle launch thread. He even suggested that if the T3 was not a huge improvement he might buy a Kindle. I swear I was drinking and didn't know it.

pdurrant · 09-06-2012, 06:07 PM

Alas, my cup is empty, and the Paperwhite Kindle isn't coming the the UK yet.

The base Kindle still looks rather good though. £69 is a decent price, seeing as it's the non-ads version.. ($89/1.6*1.2 = £67.75)

Either Jon is on something, or we both were. I felt like posting a comment to him: "Jon -- The meds. Halve 'em or double 'em."

So, now I need to find a home for a Kindle Keyboard 3G and a WiFi. Cause I see two new Paperwhites in our future. The FIre, however, we'll likely wait on a bit.

Diet Coke. #1, and I sincerely hope the last today.
