so I'm putting them on top here for all of our convenience.

06-18-06: Father's Day Book Shuffle |
has been kind enough to
reprint one of my rambles in their November 2002
issue: So What's the Point After All. There's pictures that are from
the newest and the oldest of my mini works. So new claymates take heart,
everyone was a beginner at some time or another. |

Ramble
Index:
Reopened 6-11-02
Over the three
years that the list has been in existence there's been
30 Rambles that
have been voted by list members as worth saving
somewhere. That's how
the Ramble Index got started. There were
PhotoPoint references in them
and all of those had to be replaced with
on site tutorials, Epson Album
links or the pictures of the things in
question, a new wrinkle on about
half of the Rambles, those pictures.
Did I have to do some archeology
to find those, or what? These Rambles
go back to 1999 and so do the
pictures that are referenced.
I've also sorted out the Rambles as
to Clay related, Philosophical and
MSATClayArt List related rambles. It
should be easier to get around. |
