Hey, Snookums. I remember seeing a figurine MY parents had when I was a kid that had private parts painted on underneath. It was a Mexican ceramic figurine, and I remember wondering why it was like that. But then since then, I've seen the same sorts of things on a good many Mexican ceramic animals. Your location says Exxon's Armpit. That wouldn't be Texas, would it? Because that's where I am, and in the Dallas area we have lots of mercados and stuff where you can go look at Mexican ceramics.

I've also seen those upside down armadillos holding a beer can in places like flea markets and junk stores. Haven't seen one anytime recently, though.

Just thought you'd like to know that there are folks out here who've seen and noticed the same sorts of things. . . .
