Old Rambles - written in the first three years of hosting the clay art yahoo group. I've done a rough sort of the types of rambles. Some are about clay technique and some are email list related. Some are philosophical .

* Ramble on Rambles

* The myth of "Polymer Clay People being One Family.": and how this is moot at MSATClayArt

* There are no questions too "beginnerish".

 * Rant: Public Unsubscription posted to a list and Arbitrary deletion of posts off of list archives: Two pet peeves. 

* Follow Your Bliss in a Joseph Campbell Sort of Way

* The Hero's Journey into Clay

* More on Chop and Toss Theme Building

* What Was That All About? The reasoning behind the Hawaii Tin and Rumble in the Jungle. "If it ain't life size, it's mini." Michele/luny

*MicroMiniMusings : Using jellyblends, blends that are rolled into a jelly roll, one can simulate depth in micro mini bodies by having the shadow be on the cane slice that is used as "skin". That's the brain fart here.
