The Politiki Reagan mug. It combines my love of Politics and Tiki. I guess the other president mugs are close seconds. But as a Republican, I really need that Reagan Mug. Please don't start a political discussion. Just help me get a Reagan mug. |

the real score would be to hork the lincoln and roosevelt carved tikis that are still on front of the building, flanking the sign that says "POUR*HOUSE" |

Politiki is a sad example of the kind of unique (however strange it may be!) concept that TIKI stands for totally bypassing and being wasted on the general public. |

NEVER would I have thought it possible to have my (however remote) likeness shown next to this blown-out-of-proportion empty head! (this description can be read as completely factual!) :lol: |

I have a Reagan, FDR, and Lincoln. I would love to get Carter and Nixon! @ one point they were offering the full set on their site. They never did have them though. I emailed them a few times and they were always kind of cavalier about them "missing in shipping on the way to Politiki". Always had a good time there with the MDVADC Tikiphiles.

Well... I'd love the whole dang set too, but I haven't got any and Reagan is the one I want the most. I've seen some on ebay in the past, but man... I just can't swing that kind of cash right now for a mug. Also... I'm getting a lot of snide comments pm'd to me about being a Republican. I don't lecture you on your politics or religion and I don't appreciate it from some of you. I've heard nothing but good things about (most) of you on this page but I haven't exactly recieved that kind of good vibe lately. (although I should admit some, like tiki-bot have been informative, helpful, and pretty much polite about it) I repeat... I don't want a political discussion, I'm not trolling or playing devils advocate here, I just followed some other examples of posting my "holy grail." [ Edited by: Rorysm on 2005-03-17 07:23 ] |

I cant believe people are sending you snide PM's about being republican. That is completely absurd. For anyone who did that, please see me in my office, you need a damn good spanking. In case you hadn't noticed, people in the US (and most other places) are allowed to vote for whoever they like. That's what makes democracy such a lovely thing. End of rant! |

I agree, not cool, and I hope I did not encourage such a poli-tikal missbehaviour.
Hmmm! What will you be wearing? :wink:
That's easy for you to say from a place were the electorate still seems to be dominated by common sense... :) |

I know, you're gonna make one of those shrines for it like they have in Thai Restaurants, with incense, and golden/red plastic ornaments! Ok, that's it, I shut up now, no more funny politiki talk! |

I've always been fond of the lincoln mug, but have come to the conclusion that I have a better chance winning the lottery(that I don't buy tickets for), than ending up with one. C'est la vie!

So, at this PoliTiki place, do they just have the mugs, or do they have bowls as well? If not, I was thinking, they could do a Mount Rushmore style bowl with ol' George, Thom, Teddy and Abe engraved on the side. They could call it "Mount Lush-more" and it could look something like this:
What do you think? I know... I have WAY too much time on my hands! |

Rorysm- I've got a Reagan Politiki mug (procured there on a WONderful evening with various fabulous DC/ Maryland types, after dinner at the now-gone Honolulu). My favorite part, though, is Nancy on the back dancing a hula with a ukelele, surrounded by swirling astrological signs! It was the only one of the Presidents that I wanted and bought that night. I'll trade ya - if ya got a Ren Clark severed head....or an Elvis' "Blue Hawaii" Tiki Bob (HA! my Holy Grails....and most everybody else's). Seriously, though, if you have something great to trade, I might be talked out of it. I'd love everyone to have their Grail. Email me. |
