There are several blog entries that I've been working on, but I just haven't had the time to post them. If I at least post that I'm drafting them, then maybe I'll get around to finishing them soon.
Ideas:
1.) Virginia's "open carry" gun law went into effect as of July 1, 2004.
2.) Slot machines in Maryland... too much and too little being said there...
3.) Ekphrasis and the public sphere: John Ashcroft's Aesthetics
4.) The ex-Washingonienne
Of course, a complete set of final papers need to be finished and summer session grades need to be turned in... but hopefully I'll be able to finish something on this soon.
There ought to be some interesting opportunities to combine here; how about #1 and #3 together?
I'm with Dr. K. I don't know anything about 1, and would love to hear your take on 3. Good luck with final papers, grading!
