Tuesday Action List 2.8.11

Isn't this a crazy image? Kind of sad, maybe, but still fascinating. A large coyote was hit by a car in Colorado, and this image is what was left after she had been showered by the salt spray of passing vehicles. It's haunting, I think. Someone needs to write a book of poems so that this can be the cover. Anyway . . . here is today's action list.

Do this today:

1. Visit one of the following sites and make an informal response about it to your blog.

(A) Read or Listen to a few stories at the "Three Minute Fiction" site run by National Public Radio.

(B) Read this article from the New York Times about recent research on teenage driving.

(C) Browse a story or two (or watch a video or two) at StoryCorps.

2. Leave friendly comments on at least two blogs from our class. Try leaving comments on the blogs of people you don't know.

3. If you have time, make a reading log post. If your blog is due today (period 4), update your page totals, showing how much you have read "currently," for the last two weeks (back to January 25) and what your page total for the semester is so far. OR you could leave comments about some of the poems we've looked at recently . . .
