It is said that those who drink from the skull of Nastrodamus will be gifted with the power of prediction so this is not so far out as it may seem.
I, myself, love the skull motif and do own an actual human skull (purchased online from a medical supply house) as part of my collection.
Way too expensive to just start drilling into it to make it into a bong, however.
