LOL, that's great! Paipo's gonna want that one instead!

Weeeeell, I could conceivably get that in the swap now Babs has put that into the pool instead...but that would just be greedy - right? I'm already getting one awesome mug for doing absolutely nothing, and believe me, I'm grateful for it. I also scored the wicked one-of-a-kind Manowar in the last swap!

As for the latest, I can't believe you just busted another one of those out. Nice lineup there! The Maori word for rabbit is rapeti, and there is a famous kiwi kids' song that goes "oma rapeti, oma rapeti, oma, oma, oma" which is "run rabbit, run rabbit, run run run". The hei part of hei-tiki signifies that the tiki is worn around the neck, so it usually only applies to pendants, but we'll let you away with that. Hei-Rapetiki anyone? :)
