Welcome!

Hello all!

This is the blog! Sure, the name is sort of ridiculous, but Ann Page and I thought it was funny so we went with it. We envision that this will be a place for you to ask questions, make suggestions, ponder, think out loud, and so forth in response to the theory readings which we'll be encountering throughout the semester. The idea is that I'll be available through this blog to answer questions and help clear up mysteries whenever they may arise. We also hope that you will be able to help answer each other's questions, too. Of course I'm always happy to answer questions through email, over AIM, or in person if that's what you prefer. We do hope, however, that the blog will serve as a place to start conversations about what we read, preferably before we get to class.

With all that being said, don't forget that the blog should also be a place to have some fun with what we're studying. This is an informal forum, so don't feel shy about expressing opinions, regardless of whether they're positive or negative. In class, we'll talk more specifically about what requirements for blogging there will be.

Ann Page and I are both open to suggestions about how this works, so please don't hesitate to contact me on or off the blog.

Abby
