      <![CDATA[My experience is that the more sympathetic the character depicted on the mug, the less durable it is. My <a href="http://bluebuddies.com/gallery/Smurf_Mugs/jpg/Smurfs_Mugs_Character_Jokey_Smurf.jpg" rel="nofollow">Jokey Smurf mug </a>is about to turn 29. What kind of monster gift-wraps a bomb and sends it "To All My Smurf Friends"?<br />

Your new vessel won't last the week.

      <![CDATA[I know just how you feel.  I took to my bed for a week when my "Chicago--My Kinda Town" mug smashed all over the floor after 25 years or so (I mean, it got me through graduate school and the first 2/3 of my distinguished career). But you will learn to love the new mug, and it is precious.

While I approve of this new mug, I feel dread for the horrors it will be subjected to on a daily basis.

      <![CDATA[That style of mug (I'm talking about the shape, thickness, et al of the ceramic, not the content of the decal) is very prone to chipping, leaking cracks, and broken handles. Doubt it will last as long as the other one did.<br />

But I know that isn't really the point.
