I’ve been following the tsunami in Japan (words can’t begin to describe the horror over there) and reading the NOAA to keep tabs on what’s going on. Sometime after 7am it should arrive here. Lucky for me I’m not right on the beach. I do worry about the people who have houses on beach property. It could get hellish.
What my tea tells me.
One of my favorite brands to drink is Yogi. I’m making up a pot of chai roobios right now and never noticed that the tag on the teabags have messages on them. Pretty cool because they remind me of fortune cookies. Here is the wisdom the teabags bestow unto me tonight.
“You must know that you can swim through every change of tide”
“You will feel fulfilled when you do the impossible for someone else”
“Whether you give or share, are kind or not, never let your grace fall.”
Open Thread with a spot of tea.
I really needed the last 2 days off. I woke up today and I feel absolutely great! I’m brewing some tea to take with me today. Decided to go with some afternoon tea from across the pond. Too bad there is no lemon juice or lemons in the house, that would go real good in this right about now.
Oh well, perhaps I’ll post more after ten.

Haven’t heard this one on the news yet…
A magistrate clerk at the U.S. District Court in Spokane said that Kevin William Harpham is scheduled to make an initial appearance Wednesday afternoon in Spokane. Harpham was arrested Wednesday near Addy, Stevens County.
Harpham, 36, has been charged with one count of attempting to use a weapon of mass destruction and one count of knowingly possessing an improvised explosive device, according to a complaint that was unsealed Wednesday.
An FBI source in Washington, D.C., said one man was arrested Wednesday outside a home near Addy. Agents, including a bomb expert from Quantico, Va., were preparing to search a house where others associated with the suspect may be living, the source said.
The suspect is believed to be affiliated with white supremacists, the source said…
I’m sure the reason why I haven’t seen this information on the news yet is because his name sounds so Arabic that it frightens the reporters…

Yes, we don’t have enough unemployed people over here. Lets not only add more, but pay them less than minimum wage!
God we are stupid…
