My 2 cents is I think that a "Special" mug is a fantastic idea!!! While reading this post I went over to PJ's website everything there is so amazing! It would seem that a mug would, as others have written, fill an immediate need for capital to get PJ up an running again. However, it would also show that surviving a great tragedy did not destroy the art & light of Louisiana. Houses and business can be destroyed but the essential spirit that lives inside does not have to dim. So, the mug can be a showcase of PJ's art and all the other TC people in Louisiana's joy in tiki's. I know that first the focus must be on survival but, we should not forget that life needs to go on. My suggestion is that the mug be a "celebration" of Tiki and the spirit it represents. As for selling it I think that having something positive occur because of something bad would make it even more special, to me at least!!!
