I was born like this, I had no choice

I was born with the gift of a golden voice

And twenty-seven angels from the Great Beyond

They tied me to this table right here

In the Tower of Song

    Brother Tom, I forgot how much I missed you’re influencial poetric blogs. I hope this year’s discussion board is going better than the years past, and I hope (even more so!) that those Seniors are reading your books. My english class is considerably dry compared to your insights last year. We’ve read “The Unbearable Lightness of Being” by Milan Kundera and never even ONCE talked about the religious symbolism. Just surface stuff, which excites me in NO way.

    Ps, I got my self an edublog as well, which I think is some violation of their service since I’m not a teacher, but I’m teaching myself how write wickedly, which is a fair enough excuse as far as I’m concerned.

    Hi, Trevor!! Good to hear from you (because it’s you, of course … but yr comment also signalled to me that this blog was back in business).

    Thanks for yr appreciative words about the course last year … uh … maybe when yr back this way you could stop in & encourage the seniors with yr “real world” experience … but they’re actually doing pretty well.

    I don’t think edublogs has got any cops out here checking our credentials … but this same guy, James Farmer, has set up learnerblogs.org, too, for students. Good luck with yr writing.
