What is going on!

Hop, I was totally kidding. I meant basically nothing with what I said - it just sounded fun to say. Your commentary on stereotypes is interesting, however it was no where even near my mind when I wrote this.

The martial art thing I just found funny and a bit ridiculous. It was merely an opportunity to write something silly. However, the notion that people from the mother land would be at least somewhat hip to tea would seem like a reasonable scenario.

The few time's I've attempted to talk tea with my Asian compadres, it has been totally unssuccesful. So, no, I wasn't mocking you in anyway whatsoever. I just wanted to write something silly, and I believe my objective was fully accomplished. But again, it wasn't to make a point or anything like that. Just to say something silly because the opportunity had arisen.

By the way Hop, can you home brew something that tastes similar to Sierra Nevada Pale Ale That stuff is bliss.

Awwh Bamboo you worry too much! No offense taken sheesh! As for your Sierra Nevada, I am sure I can figure something out.. It is just a West coast style pale ale.. I will look into it for ya
