Here's what we did in class on Friday the 16th:

• Smith reminded us about the summary-response paper, due next Friday (the 23rd)
• The paper should be 1.5 to 2 pages maximum, double spaced
• The first paragraph is only a summary of The Importance of Being Earnest, the second paragraph comapres TIoBE to The Picture of Dorian Gray
• Bring an outline and thesis to class on Monday
• Rememeber to pick up a copy of Brave New World, and try to read it over break
• We continued to watch The Importance of Being Earnest.
• The two women in the movie, Gwendolen and Cecily, both love the name Earnest
• Jack and Algy revealed that neither one of them is in fact named Earnest
• Jack and Algy want to be christened Earnest by the priest
• Jack is revealed to be Lady Bracknell's son
• The marraiges of Jack and Gwendolen, and Algy and Cecily look like they could happen

That's all for now! Have a good weekend. Happy St. Patrick's Day!
