Except that I always get nervous when they change something on my computer: that something important will be lost... still a new little laptop will be fun, fun, fun!
"Two drifters off to see the world. There's such a lot of world to see. . ."
cookie- you're actually the second person who suggested that to me! I've been trying to veer away from JUST McCarthyism, and just talk about Censorship as a whole. Then I could most certainly talk about The Crucible! Thanks babe.
how are you, big bro?
awkward.

For AP American History, I discussed Puritanism and the ramifications of the Scarlet Letter as a reflection of American Puritan Life and its Contradictions in Practice and Theory
Patrick Wilson is a Cancerian and his birthday is not on that "bad" day...it's 7/3.... Actually 7/3/73...probably means something cosmic to have those number combos...
and he's still young enough to be "trainable." LOL!
Where are we going, and why am I in this handbasket?
Hey, Jwei, you need to listen to my SBL and add the Crucible into the mix. IF you're feeling really masochistic, present the other side and show Ann Coulter's sick, perverted McCarthy worship (she actually visits his grave and lays flowers on it on his birthday...or at least, she professes to. I imagine she'd really only walk into a graveyard if it was of the mass variety and filled with liberals and Muslims so she could dance on top of it).
But of course, use the Crucible as a backdrop, and discuss McCarthy and his attempts to purge the arts community, highlighting Elia Kazan and how he did name names, the consequences of that, and Arthur Miller, who didn't name names. That way, you can also tie in the aspect of the Salem Witch Trials (or even reference the Inquisition, if you want to go global about it), as the prelude and precursor to McCarthy's Committee of Un-American Activities...
