Pretty much standard, most of mine are the same. Health, weight loss,
green tea. I get a few real searches by Chinese tea name, and I also
get water heater water temp searches for some unknown reason Google
sends 'em my way to what I can only guess is total disappointment.

I find this to be the same in everyday life in the U.S. Almost
everyone who approaches me, finds out about me, or sees my tea only
has those same ideas: health, weight loss, green tea. It's kind of
disheartening, and especially for them when I blow a few holes in that
magical panacea they have in their heads. I wish it wasn't that way,
and I always stress the fact that tea is special for many real reasons
and that any benefits are icing on the cake. Sometimes they respond
favorably, other times I am an idiot because they have a friend who
was cured of terminal cancer while being saved from shark attack all
because they had a cup of green tea that morning.

To each their own, I just wish the average "sheeple" in the U.S. could
find their own brain beyond the marketing departments of some company.

Most of my google hits are related to "nerd(y) wallpaper(s)." Sigh.

It might be true to some extent, but in a roundabout way. The tea can
displace other drinks that aren't so good - sodas, beer, sugared
instant
teas, wine, spirits. In this sense water would be just as good, if not
better, but it's taste is boring for most people. But I see what you
mean!

Oddly enough, the Half-Dipper gets a lot of traffic for people
searching for the phrase "Crusty Jugglers".

In fact, of the 59,000 Google hits for "Crusty Jugglers", the Half-
Dipper is ranked #1. I'm not sure if that's something to be happy
about...

"Lincang puer" and "confucian tea house beijing" are the highest-
ranked searches concerning tea, after "Half Dipper"-related phrases.

My personal favourites from the list of searches a

i. "nastiest ingredients in cigarettes"
ii. "toodlepip origins"
iii. "urine tasting"
iv. "it is the hour of the dragon"


Toodlepip,

Hobbes
