Welcome to the blog for Prof. John Talbird's English 252 class. The purpose of this site is two-fold: 1) to continue the conversations we start in class (or to start conversations before we get to class) and 2) to practice our writing/reading on a weekly basis in an informal forum.

Bringing Up Baby
As i read the story knowing obviously it was a romantic story. My feeling towards it was not comedy but more like a series of events between two people. Dave and Susan are complete opposites, You the saying "opposites attract". This short story is a testament to that , First off you have Dave a stoic-type of a man who is a academic,and a bit of loner. Then you have Susan a outgoing, flamboyant, loud-type of a woman who needs company of man to make herself feel safe. I feel throught the story Susan is taking charge and dave is along for the ride whether he wants to or not. for example when dave called the zoo and susan beg him not to. Later on when susan told dave " we have to look for baby''. Dave responded "NO". Susan replies in a blackmailish kind of a way" start thinking about it . The jist of it susan had dave in the palm of her hand from the beginning.
