	Mills Mess
		The Mills Mess is a popular juggling pattern, typically performed with 3 balls although the number and type of object can be different.
		Unlike clowns, jugglers do not typically feel a need to claim ownership of their various routines and tricks, borrowing tricks and combinations is a common practice among jugglers, with skills being 'layered on top of one another' to produce new tricks.
		A four step method of progressing to Mills Mess from a 3-ball cascade is to begin by throwing one ball from under the opposite arm rather than over it.

	Mills Mess while passing
		Fans of Mills' Mess will be glad (at least those who didn't already know) to know that Mills' Mess can be done whilst passing, in almost any pattern (personally, I've only experimented with 3 and 4-count, but I'm certain it works for others).
		The principle is simple - it comes down to the realisation that, if one is comfortable with Mills' Mess, one may make a right or left-handed pass starting at any position (arms crossed or uncrossed) to their partner's right or left hand.
		One solution is to cold start with Mills' Mess and stay there (or if you want to switch to normal passing, go into Jim's 3-count).
