JOURNAL TOPIC: [today's tunes: Fela Kuti's "Teacher Don't Teach Me No Nonsense"]

What is your favorite music? How would you describe it to a deaf person?

AGENDA:
1. Journal
2. "Richard Cory" LIVE: shift, voice, theme, genre
3. Treasure hunt

HW:
1. For Monday: "The Right to Your Opinion" and "Richard Cory" (cont'd.)
2. Blog posts: Welcome message and responses to readings
(UPDATE: your response to reading is up to you.  I just want to know you read each text enough to form a first impression, ask a question, express an opinion, and post to your blog.  I will use what I see to launch our conversations on Monday.)
