327 and the Tea Pillow

Tiger #327 is one of the few remaining male South China Tigers in existence, and the other day he was flown down to Africa for the process of "re-wildification." Considering he's lived his entire life in captivity and is only known by his ID number, I'd say he has a long way to go. During this process he will be paired with a female South China Tiger in the hopes that they will breed and kick start the species out of the endangered zone. The female tigers name is Kathy. I know, I know ... kathy and #327, sounds like so many story book romances we've read and seen on the big screen, but it might not be as easy as it seems on paper. Kathy has been living out in the wild now for sometime, and as such, has certain expectations for her man. #327 on the other hand, has been spoon feed only the finest animal entrails his whole life and it was reported that the feel of grass under his paws frightened him so much that he ran back into his cage. I makes me wonder if Kathy will be able to accept such a huge pussy ... oh well, we'll see.

Oh the Tea Pillow. I was asked this morning, by a surprising chinese commercial read in engilish, if I could even imagine the possibilities of a combination of famous chinese tea, and pillows. The first thing that popped into my head was terror and panic, this seemed like something out of my worst nightmares. But then I calmed down and I thought, and I managed to think of 2 immediate possibilities of a combination between Tea leaves and a pillow. The first thing I thought of is what normal people would call a tea bag. We dip it in hot or cold water to make tea. The second thing I thought of was a Tea Pillow. It turns out they were referring to the later, and as it turned out I had been able to imagine the possibilities ... I was fairly proud of myself. Apparently by stuffing a pillow full of tea leaves you can be magically transported to the Ancient Chinese Tea gardens, which are famous the world over ... for their tea. Unfortunately you are only transported in your dreams, and when you wake up the side of your face is stained a nasty brackish color and your whole head smells like tea. Apparently it is also not advisable for you lay on this pillow when your hair is wet, otherwise you'll get tea all over your bed. I guess they either hadn't worked out the kinks associated with sleeping on a giant tea bag, or they just didnt want to. But either way kudos to them, I'm sure they'll make a nice amount of money off of this Tea Pillow. Anything associated with Tea, and the pure awesomeness of Chinese Tea, sells like hot cakes here ... hot cakes with tea leaves in them.
