Hell Yeah or NO

I have this mug sitting on my desk while I go through my inbox.
Because the old adage is true: You teach that which you need to learn, I constantly need reinforcement and reminders of the insights I share here at NO-vember. So I made this mug. If you want one you can get one for yourself.

Good luck,
