Welp - the site is finally working well enough for me to put it in the Tiki Marketplace. Please take a gander: http://www.vantiki.com There are a few mugs still available from batch #2 (the cool green Pongo Log mug in the gallery is on hold, I'll know more in a day or so), and I have included a lot of info on pre-ordering mugs on this new version of the site. Please be warned - I am no HTML genious! I slapped this together with iWeb, so I know it can get a bit wonky for Internet Explorer users. Firefox and Safari would be your best bet. A big mahalo to all Tiki Centralites for your advice and guidance! Mahalo, VanTiki

A crisp breeze blowing gently through the dimly lit hallway. CRACK!...a flash of blue light as the storm draws near. CRACK!...I calmly lay my pack upon the heavy wooden drum. rrrRUuummbBLE...I lay the tiny burnt remain of cigar upon the marble tray. I strike a match. Lighting a candle next to the decanter of rum...CRACK! FLASH!...HOoowwWL! The candle flame is RIPPED from the wick. I panic and from the darkness...a hellish kackle? echoing nearer...and closer...a laughter that chills my spine. kkKRACK!POP!SNAP!...FLASH...thier faces become clear and closer yet. Suddenly I realize... "Hey my mugs arrived from VANTIKI!" Chokest mahaloz vantiki! Da kine SsweeetT buggahs paka, braddah!!! Smokin' heft and 'hand-feel' on these babies folks!

I wanted my first to go to you - those are killer mugs! Some of the best I've ever seen! I've got to have one. All right, one of each. [ Edited by: Mo-Eye 2006-05-19 15:33 ]
DL Dancin' Lizard Member Manchester, WA Joined: Jan 27, 2005 Posts: 144	DL Dancin' Lizard Posted posted on 08/23/2006 I just received Jabber Pod #12 last week. The photos don't do this piece of art justice. When you hold this mug in your hand it has weight, texture and warmpth. Nothing like a commercial, vintage and modern, mug will give you. Well worth every penny paid. It is truly a piece of art. It's a one of a kind and it's a stand out addition to any mug collection. Mahalo to VanTiki.
