Geeky Ugaritic Mug

I just HAD to blog about one of the geekiest things I've seen (this week).  Boy...I wish I had one :-).  It turns out Eisenbrauns is offering a mug that has the story of 'Ilu's drinking party in Ugaritic cuneiform with a helpful translation on the other side (for those not sufficiently adept at reading such texts in cuneiform).  If anyone gets me for a secret pal this year for Christmas...only $15 will snag this beauty...hint-hint.  I can taste the rootbeer floats now...."wtštn...cd šbc."

  2. James,
    If I was going to be there I would CERTAINLY be picking one up :-). I'm hoping to still get one anyways. This year SBL was not to be for me...though perhaps next year. Thanks for letting me (and my readers know though).
