sounds like a soul-searching experience, Lappe's book sounds like it taps into some very intriguing topics. although i havent read it, fairness cooperation and competitiveness sound like some pretty common topics on alot of discussions about american morale.

I do think this writing medium of blog communication is an effective teaching methods, it also doesnt hurt that the reading material is very immersive and thought provoking. Through this class i have found another favorite writer in Salman Rushdie. For those of us who are majoring in any type of writing for college using blogs just keeps showing us how much this field keeps evolving. And blogging is just another rising quality any writer should possess. I had always wanted to start blogging on my own but i never tried, but im glad this class gave me the jumpstart i needed. I don't know if any of my blogs were actually noteworthy but i do feel i developed a clear voice about what i was trying to project. The benefits do outweigh the negatives in what involves writing to the rest of the world, and i think this class definitely played to the strengths of a large audience and their writing abilities. i look forward to reading next semester's batch of bloggers.

curses can be argued to be distractions or scapegoats for failed actions, i mean its easier to blame the dog for urinating in the house than for blaming yourself by not letting them out to pee, dont u think?

I agree - Southpark is the best modern form of satire.

your final paragraph is the bread and butter of your argument, Rushdie doesnt believe in religion period. So i'm sure thats why his stories always gather against that sort of worship.

"Ego tells us that we are separate, special, and unique because we are apart." amen to that. if only the people who depend on their ego realized that there would be no need of one anymore.

very cool depth material. i agree with the concept of destorying her old self to gain a new one. its like layers of themselves that they need to keep breaking through to progress.

"life is like a box of chocolates - you never know what you're gonna get"
hehe, i thought of that quote at the end of your post. I agree with your take that the framless atmosphere is just a direct written illustration of her frameless life. The book is definitely off the walls, its like reading a series of sentences with no periods or commas.
good stuff.
