way accidents and creeps
into the brain as we pass by."

Junkyard Quote 2 Week 13 extra

"the only truly magical way to listen to music is to 
dub your records onto cassette tape, 
go to an antique store and buy a boom box
or find one online
with ONLY
a radio tuner
and two cassette tape decks
preferably silver
load it up with D batteries
go to a city park with five of your best friends
and play the tape
and repeat the tape
and repeat the tape
and repeat the tape
after awhile their friends and their friends 
and their friends will all join you
before you know it 
there’ll be a crowd of 30 or so
then you can commence with the shenanigans
and have a potluck
and smoke lots of drugs
and drink lots of alcohol
and make sure all your girl friends 
get to know all your guy friends
and when you think the party’s about to run away
cause everyone’s passing out at 4 am
bust out your secret stash of german potato salad"

Junkyard Quote Week 13 extra

"Roland found that the effect of being this close to the thinny was cumulative-it wasn't a sound you could get used to. Quite the contrary, in fact: the longer you were in the immediate vicinity of Eyebolt Canyon, the more that sound scraped away at your brain. It got into your teeth as well as your ears; it vibrated in the knot of nerves  below the breastbone and seemed to eat at the damp and delicate tissue behind the eyes."

From Stephen King's "Wizard and Glass"

Classmate response 1 Week 10

Response to Daddy Love his Daughter by Aveguel
Well this story does seem like something that came from a law and order svu episode. It is a heavy topic but you did a good job of not staying directly on the topic. Bringing up the European traditions and deflowering was a good distraction and it lead you right back to the present situation with all of its irony of having "him" walk the speaker down the isle wearing the garter that "garters ink around my thigh". YOu made the garter one of those concrete objects that stand for something way abstract to the speaker. I enjoyed it alot it was very clever.
