It is, after all, a glazed ceramic (matte on outside, gloss on inside).

Or this is the result of too many viewings of Marlo Thomas' "Free to be Me..." The mug has a vital part in the community theater's production of "Last of the Mohicans"? Tammy Faye mug? Either way, it's here, it's queer, get used to it! I say we euthanize it, put this thing out of Tiki misery...just get it out of the gene pool. midnite (watch it go $55)

J jtiki Member Joined: May 06, 2002 Posts: 111	J jtiki Posted posted on Thu, Jan 23, 2003 5:27 AM Actually I picked up my sneaky tiki in a very low painted condition, and trolled for suggestions on how to fix it. One of the scarier variations I've seen was an ebay auction for a headhunter mug, that had been "modified" to look like spiderman. [ Edited by: jtiki on 2003-01-23 05:37 ]
