A True Story From 1928 With A Few Artistic Embellishments.

PANEL 1
Alfredo's sat at a soda bar with Jack being his bartender.

JACK: Looks like someone’s had a long day.

AL: And how!

PANEL 2
JACK: In that case, how about a nice, refreshing whiskey highball?

AL: Whiskey? The real deal?

JACK: Nothing but the best for my most loyal customer!


PANEL 3A
AL: Very well. Make it a double.

PANEL 3B
INSPECTOR DILLON: Excuse me…

PANEL 4A
INSPECTOR DILLON: What are you going to buy with that money, sir?
PANEL 4B
Alfredo notices 15c sandwiches on the menu.

PANEL 5
AL: Sandwiches.

INSPECTOR DILLON: Two dollars’ worth of sandwiches?

AL: That’s right. I’m hungry.

PANEL 6A
JACK: This here’s old “Sandwich Slugger” Al - always eats at least a dozen of things! What a card, am I right?
PANEL 6B
Jack turns to Al with a darkened expression.
JACK: Are you out of your mind?! There’s no way you can-

AL: Keep ‘em coming, barkeep.

Following panels feature Al demolishing a tower of sandwiches, until one last bite remains.

PANEL 9
AL: …I think this will hold me until supper.

With that, Al faints and falls on the ground with a thud.

PANEL 11
JACK: Al, you idiot! You know processed meat gives you indigestion!
Why’d you do it, Al?

Don’t leave me. Not like this!

PANEL 12
INSPECTOR DILLON (OFF PANEL): Ahem.

PANEL 13
INSPECTOR DILLON: As much as we’re impressed - and slightly horrified - by your clientele’s appetite, we do have a search to conduct.

INSPECTOR BYRD: Well, I’ll be! Canadian whiskey! The boss is gonna love this.


PANEL 14
Shot of Jack, handcuffed in a police car. In the background Al is being hauled away by the ambulance.

Japanese tea bag maker Ocean-Teabag has been making waves by creating little parcels of aroma in the shape of marine animals. Luckily for us, their wide range of tea bags are available at online Japanese novelty retailer Village Vanguard, maker of such fine products as Space Tea and cat-shaped kitchen utensils.

Ocean-Teabag’s earliest designs included beautiful dolphin tea bags filled with blue mallow tea leaves. Steeping them turns your otherwise normal pot of water into a tranquil ocean. Proving to be a hit among tea lovers, Ocean-Teabag expanded their repertoire to many other sea creatures including the sea turtle (butterfly pea jasmine tea)…

image

the distinctive ocean sunfish (Japanese hojicha — roasted green tea)…

image

the graceful manta ray (tropical mango tea)…

image

and even a blood-thirsty shark (blended herb tea).

image

The newest addition to their robust series of marine creatures is a tea bag shaped like an innocuous sea cucumber. This little parcel is filled with jasmine tea, as well as a smidgen of sea cucumber powder to lend some authenticity. Ocean-Teabag warns that some people who have a sensitive tongue may find it tasting a little fishy.

image

The company also crafted a deep sea series that will satisfy even the most adventurous of tea drinkers out there. A few such examples are the anglerfish (earl grey tea)…

image

the creepy giant isopod (Eastern Beauty oolong tea)…

image

the horseshoe crab (white apricot tea)…

image

…and lastly the king of them all, the enormous giant oarfish. ( Delicious Assam tea of epic proportions! ) Just like its namesake, it measures a whopping 19 centimeters (7.5 inches). Drinking tea becomes an art when half of your tea bag hangs out of your cup.

image

 While the notion of turning your cup of tea into fish-inhabiting waters is not new, these tea bags will hopefully conjure up images of gentle ocean waves in your mind.
