MIAMI TO COSTA RICA

Pot.

I have a problem.  I need your help.  I've been trying to decide something very big and I can't seem to make a decision:
Should I get a tea pot? 
I've been making a LOT of tea lately and my little glass French press is put to work daily for a few cups of shade-grown and so far I've just boiled the water in an aluminum sauce pot.  But I hear the neighbor's kettle whistling a couple of times every day and I wonder if this might not be a better way to boil my water.  Less splashing onto the counter.  I could leave it filled without worrying about winged creatures and pet-hair.  But every time I get to the moment of truth, the moment where I select a tea-pot/kettle, I hesitate.  Do I really need one?  Will it be better than the pot?  Do I not violate the single use item ban by purchasing something that I'll only use for one purpose? 
I had one in each hand today.  One was steel with a snazzy padded handle and the other was aluminum with a plastic handle.  I put them both back.  I couldn't make a decision.  As I walked out of the store a few minutes later, I considered the possibility that I haven't got nearly enough going on lately.  An epiphany and something I promise to work on.  But, in the meantime, what do you think?  Pot or Tea Pot?

I want....

I want a 'venti' latte. This is the land of coffee, right?  So, why the Hell can't I get a cup of coffee bigger than what Starbucks refers to as a "tall"?  All I want is a cup that holds at least 24 ounces of caffeinated goodness....and some whole milk.  So far, the best tasting coffee I've gotten, made for me, with milk, has been from a crappy little plastic machine at the AM/PM down the street.  I get one every Saturday morning as we walk to the feria (farmer's market) and I finish it a couple of blocks later, before I reach the next stop light.  That's because there's only about 8 ounces of coffee in that cup.  Granted, it is delicious, but in a perfect universe, I'd still be nursing that coffee half-way through the feria.  A perfect-sized cup of coffee, for me, is one where by the time I drink the last drop, I've had enough liquid that now I've really gotta pee.  By my estimation, that's gonna take at least 20 ounces.  This country supposedly makes fantastic coffee but, apparently, it's all exported for the likes of Starbucks and (the home of truly magnificent coffee) Dunkin' Donuts.  Does any place here make really great coffee served in a HUGE cup?  Don't email me telling me that there's one near you.  I live in Pavas.  I want it to be within walking distance.  Happy, short walking distance - not long, sweaty schlepping distance.  Better yet, how about someone opening a Dunkin' Donuts near here.  That'd be heaven.  I'll bet then we'd know where to find the cops in this country.  If I could have access to a DD, I'd never ever want to leave Costa Rica.  What for?  If I can walk a block or two and get a Boston Cream, two toasted coconut donuts and a large Coffee Coolatta, I might flush my passport down the toilet.  Well, a Dunkin' and maybe a Target.  A Target would be nice too.
