Tacoma artist Teddy Haggarty recently painted a Picasso-like mural on the south exterior wall of JJ's Pub & Grub (formerly the Cat Box Lounge and Cloud 9) at 5431 South Tacoma Way.  While the paint dried Haggarty hopped a plane to Houston for business reasons.  Upon his return Thursday afternoon, he found his work of art tagged with spray paint.

"In a weird way, I'm not mad," says Haggarty via phone.  "There's a golden lining around that cloud somewhere."
