Our local Christian radio station had a white elephant exchange and for years this particular "ugly" mug has been traveling around the central part of our State.  It turned out it ended up at the WBGL Christmas party, and I don't know who was the recepient of this prize, but they said it was horrible and they kept trying to get someone else to take it.  lol.  I mean it's not a pretty sight, I saw it on tv......lol.  But someone researched it and come to find out, it's a TIKI mug from a an old Beverly Hills restaurant in California.  The restaurant I believe opened in 1950 something and these mugs came from there.  So who knows who has had a sip out of this mug.  I guess famous movie stars frequented this particular restaurant.  So now  instead of passing it on, they've now listed it on Ebay and they are taking the proceeds from this mug and are going to use it to benefit a family in need this year in their local area.  If you are interested in seeing it, you can go to
