April 2009 ITD Tasting

by Salsero » Apr 1st, '09, 18:39

For the April tasting I am offering a couple of new season Chinese greens:

Yang Yan Gou Qing

Guo Bin Li Cha Mao Feng, which is TeaSpring's higher quality Huang Shan Mao Feng.

Participants limited to 15 or so. I should have the tea in about a week ... let's call April 10th the deadline to sign up. I am happy to mail to all countries, planets, dimensions, and ships at sea.

You have ignored at your peril.

I hope you don't take it personally, but I think this will be my first ever PASS.
I just got a bunch of 09 greens from teaspring, enough to satisfy my curiosity for the season.

Teas look good but Chinese green has never blown my skirt up, as Padre says.

It's my Birth month, so I'm so in!

It'll be like a birthday present!

(April 1st is the day if I don't mind to toot my own horn.)

Unlike the skirt of Brandon, mine is easily swayed by fresh Chinese green tea. Count me in, but if there's a lot of interest you can put me down as sort of an alternate. :D

You had to know that this would send me scurrying to the Urban Dictionary:

  • GTFO
    • An acronym for G** T** F*** O**.
      1. Can be an expression of excitement for something really extraordinary, including doubt of its existence.
      2. Used to tell noobs off or shut them up.
      3. An expression for physically leaving a place with no disclosure to members of the place.
      • EXEMPLUM PRACTICUM
        1. Suprised by the size of the dildo, Kathy exclaimed,
        GTFO! when she pulled it out of Amy's sock drawer.
[/size]

As is so often the case, I find many and contradictory meanings in that reference source, but after long deliberation, I am interpreting your acronym as a signal of participatory zeal (i.e., sense #1 above) and adding your name to the Roll of Honor.
