To chide or not to chide?  That is the question, Miss Blue. To hang the mugs or to set them upon a shelf?  Is it your notion that swinging mugs are somewhat giddy in effect whilst unswinging mugs capture our most noble instincts? I have checked the many references re mugs and find not even one that would tell me about the swinging and sitting mugs.  D'Amico's will be alerted this very day; but I will continue the tedious research so that we will be able to settle the question. . .
