Gordon the Mouse from the webcomic "Alden by Egan" has some words of wisdom about the path to being happy. Don't WAIT for happiness to find you... get out there and hunt it down. Gordon is a MOUSE. Calling him a rat or hamster or anything but a pure Mus musculus will get your eyebrows removed. Kinda like calling an Irishman “British.”  Gordon is a mechanical wiz. Small engines seem to heal themselves in his hands. He’s a cynical coffee addict who is frequently grumpy. He has very particular tastes and habits, and he HATES getting blood in his caffeine system. He doesn’t suffer fools gladly; his sarcasm has knocked crows off a fence from 30 paces away. He is a long-suffering best friend to Alden. beautiful ceramic mug is perfect for any event of the day.
