    One thing about tea shops in Afghanistan is tea shops of the older places on the other continents are infamous for other things to really get you going in the day: illegal narcotics by United States standards.  So you are looking at two men in the photographs who are likely Islamic who have spent part of their lives wondering how much life is in that beam of light as their conscious floats around while using their products?  How much of Satan do they see in that beam of light as they experimented on their alternative to tea products?  Satan! is that you?


    The United States by comparison has Starbucks coffee shops and these are populated by angels of society as families show up to read, be literate, play on the computers with the Starbucks wireless connections, and have coffee and any cookies, cakes, and pastries they also sell.


    Afghanistan gets to see Satan in their tea shops and the United States gets to see Angels in their coffee shops.  Enjoy.
