Mel..I got a chuckle out of this one...
spent a week at a summer college once,,

ostensibly to take intermediate throwing.
The glass studio was next door to
the ceramics ...met some glass blowers,,
blew some glass,,,forgot about throwing
for a day or so,,,loved the feeling
got seduced....drank tequila...
have totally resisted the urge ever since!
