Homework Due Thursday

Here is the link to the NY Times article I read to you in class on Wednesday ("The Main Course Had an Unhappy Face):  http://www.nytimes.com/2010/11/21/nyregion/21citycritic.html?_r=1  Choose one of the 136 comments that resonates with you in some way, and copy it into your Reader's Sourcebook (or cut and paste it, print it out, attach it to your sourcebook).  Then comment on the comment, perhaps explaining why you agree or disagree with the writer of the comment, and/or making connections to your own experience.

The Link...Again

Here is the link to Parallel Structure notes, for real this time:

Please remember to read Chapter 12 for tomorrow and write 7-10 entries in your sourcebook. 

For extra credit write a paragraph or two of a speech and include an example of parallel structure.
