This idol was at my in-law's home. This Hindu God is probably the coolest of all Gods. He is also been depicted in in 21st century poses (like playing cricket, playing a guitar, etc) and people find it cool to decorate their selves with this morphs.

Nice snap and description - I can see the joint aspect - he could play guitar with two hands and still have hands left over to smoke and drink ;-)

that's his snapped off tusk in his hand, not a joint, the story is either that he snapped it in a fight or it was used to enscribe a holy text, not all that up on hindu cosmology. Ganesh is great though.
