One of my friends from the East emailed me and asked me to check up on his friend Leonidas W. Smiley. I got in touch with Simon Wheeler and asked him about Leonidas. My friend was probably lying to me and doesn't know anybody named Leondias Smiley because old Mr. Wheeler rambled on and on about someone else named Smiley. Old Mr. Wheeler reminiscenced forever about him and I have a feeling my friend about him and I have a feeling my friend knew that would happen all along.

My boy from the east side asked about Smiley. Simon lied to me and Mr. wheeler is wack. They don’t know Smiley. You heard. So I don’t know what to tell you.

Post a Comment

important technical notes

...it's a good idea to write your posts in a word processing program (MS Word has a "blog post" template that is ideal) before posting. That will allow you to save your work and avoid the extraordinarily frustrating experience of hitting the wrong key just before publishing a post and losing at all (not that I'veever made such a rookie mistake, of course).

...if you're having trouble posting an inquiry or response, you can print out your paper and bring it to class in order to receive credit. I'll still ask you to post it to the blog once we fix the problem, but that way you'll still receive full credit.

inquiry papers

response guidelines

Your response papers should be in the "comment" section of the inquiry paper to which you are responding.

1) Read a classmate's inquiry paper that has not yet been responded to.

2) Summarize the argument or thesis of the assigned reading.

3) Address your classmate's question(s) using what you've learned from this and other readings. You may not feel confident in your answers; that's okay. Speculate, brainstorm, explore, pose other questions, relate it to your life experience, expand on the stakes of the questions, etc.
