Check out the John Logan Tribute on my site...It is in two places so you =
can likely find it....Only thing is though.....Mine are "Blues =
Bowls"....I used to call them teabowls but it was explained to me by =
those who know much more than I that I couldn't make teabowls cause I'm =
not Japanese!!!!.....Funny how those Japanese would be the only ones who =
are authorized to make something with such an American sounding =
name.....Huh?

As a Chinese person, I give you full authorization to call them CHINESE
teabowls! (ummm... so what if the style looks more Japanese ;-) )
Err... it would also help if you actually drank tea out of them.
I make pasta bowls. Am I not allowed to call them PASTA bowls just because
Marco Polo took noodles from the Chinese and renamed them pasta? Do I have
to call them NOODLE bowls now instead when I make them?
(Just having fun here. No negative racial e-mails please! :-D )
(Sorry, Kelly if I started some noodle slinging.)

It is always interesting to see things from another person's
perspective.Thanks for your post.It was taken in the informative and
humorous intent meant.
