Blog 4 Due Mon 2-27 What would you do?

This week I thought it would be nice to do something more creative. Here's two choices.

1.)  A lot of our conversation in class today centered around the question the narrator poises to the reader on page 56 of "On the Rainy River", "What would you do?"  For Tim, the decision he had to make was for moral, ethical, social, and legal reasons literally undecidable, so he did not make a decision at all.  In our discussion in class today, we saw that any decision one would make in that scenario would have very real and very unpleasant consequences.  So, for your blog for this week, put yourself in Tim's shoes and write about what you would do.  Be sure to weigh the implications of your decision and consider how you would deal with them

2.)  On page 57-58 the narrator gives a list of the "chunks of [his] own history" that floated by after he resigns himself to going to war.  Make your own similar list.  Who and/or what would comprise the images you would see when faced with a decision that got to the core of what you were made of?
