"This is Water" by one of the greatest writers of the 21st Century... ya, that's right! Check it out please!


        You have probably already read or watched this video, but even if you have, you likely should watch or read it again. This is one of those speeches that requires multiple readings. It fits with our course theme and the simple fact that you are about to enter a very different, "real" reality in a few months. No mommy or daddy or Great Aunty Kathy to take care of you anymore. Take some time, watch this vid. I've also included the full text of the speech, delivered by David Foster Wallace at Kenyon College. Hit the comment button at the bottom of this blog to tell me what you think!!
Vid (only 10 min's, not full speech) Please look at 2nd image box.
Here's the full speech. It's worth your time!! 
 
      Quick Classroom point: to this point some of you have either not been posting your blogs, making any comments, or not inserting the necessary images or links. Please remember from this point forward, all work in Act III and beyond will officially "count"... Take care, and watch the vid!!!
