Meet Tony: Taster, mix-master, all things operational, tea-maker extraordinaire

Q:  What was your happiest time drinking tea?

A: When I was young my grandmother would make large pitchers of sun tea in the summer to drink when walking beans or doing other various farm chores.  The tea was soft and somewhat lackluster prior to the pound of sugar being added, but it still brings back fond memories.

Q: Which famous figures in history would you most like to have tea with?

A: JC- seems like he would have an excellent tea service.

A:  Rush Limbaugh

Q:  What do you most hope to read in the tea leaves?

A:  That I will someday lead humanity in the fight against the machines!

Q:  What do you least want to see in the tea leaves? 

A:  That we will have waited too long before realizing the errors of our ways

Q:  What do you think about while your tea is steeping?

A:  I drink oolong to prevent having too much time to think when waiting for my tea to steep.

Q:  What gets you really steamed?

A:  Self checkout lanes, debit card transaction fees, states with income tax but no sales tax, value added merchandise.

Q:  What is your motto?

A:  Overdone is underrated.

Q:  What is your auto?

A:  Toyota, the one that will not stop.

Q:  What is the shortest path to peace?

A:   Total destruction…unfortunately.

Q:  If you were a tea bush, what kind would you be?
