Yes indeed! The other white meat is back with a vengeance and ham-fisted shenanigans are afoot! 12 artists modify, chop, slice, boil, grill, and otherwise ruin a perfectly good Luau Pig for this online show and sale. It makes me happy as a pig in... well....

Just think of it....

•A gallery show you can attend in your jammies!
•No pesky valets to tip!
•Your own choice of hors d'oeuvres and beverages! (Chicharrones and Fanta for me!)
•No pretentious artsy-fartsy characters breathing cheap Merlot and Marlboros in your face! (Unless you happen to co-habitate with one)
And PIGS! GLORIOUS PIGS!!

I could go on about all the porkerific aspects of this show and sale but I'll let this little preview do the talking. More blanks will be filled in as I receive them. Stay tuned!!!!

There's still more pigs for sale, and a few more on the way. So, if you're looking to buy a pig you better grab one before they go to ebay.

What a killer idea for show this is...all the mugs look fantastic!

Bowana, I can't believe your piggies are still in the pen? Folks, I have held these two mugs and I must say they are EPIC!! they are worth double the price that the boys are asking for them here.

Unsold piglets pop up on ebay starting Sunday 14th.

Now's your change to procure a porker prior to a potential pile-up of purchasers!!

It's supposed tho say "chance", not "change".
You have to excuse Squid's spelling. He's from Missouri, and they weren't real big on schoolin' and learnin' thangs back when he was a young un.
