MUGS! (by Gary Rith) A pal of mine in Houston, yet another wonderful pal in Houston, a place I have never been, saw my dinosaur mugs and asked if I could try red dragon mugs....mmm hmm, yes I can......
The Red Dragon is the symbol of Wales, it is claimed that there was a Roman legion formed from welshmen, which marched under a red dragon banner, in the fourth century a.d. Y Ddraig Goch is welsh for "The Red Dragon", the flag of Wales is a Rred dragon on a field of green and white...It's also claimed to be the oldest national flag in the world... How do I know all this? because my mother is welsh, and I grew up on welsh folk stories. So cool dragons! Fire breathing, made in the fire. I think that Houston lady should drink hot ginger beer from these!
OMG !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE THESE GUYS !!!!!!!!!!!! WOWWWWWWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!
okay enough of the monster caps. Gary, they are perfect. really, really perfect. better than i ever could have imagined. wow...... i'm excited. and yes, dragon is my chinese horoscope: year AND month.
mmmmmmmmmmmm Ginger Beer would be mighty tasty drunk from one of these handsome fellows. sigh.
My daughter would die for those. She's a huge fantasy fan--her favorite saying is "Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup."

Very cool. I love the detailed wings.
Of course, my great-grandfather Thomas was a tiny little3 Welshman.....
Fabulous! Esecially as my Chinese horoscope is a dragon.
A big pair of jugs, a big pair of mugs? Good thing pottery balls aren't all the rage!
