Thing 2
Web 2.0 is so huge. I did the reading and now I'm at FETC and it is all the rage. I have attended atleast 5 sessions dealing with blogs, voicethreads, wikis, and online videos. It is a great way for all to learn because we all have plenty to share. Great stuff, but overwhelming. I'm on overload.

Today we met to discuss Boot Camp. Most everyone felt the book was good but most did not care for the content. It was so sad and depressing that there really are places like this that parents send their children. We are tring to select a new book for Febuary- one with romance!!The group suggested, Howl's Moving Castle. I'm not familar with the book, but it appears to have more fantasy than romance. Any suggestions?

Boot Camp
I read Boot Camp by Todd Strasser over the Winter Holiday. While I enjoyed Garrett's spirit and struggles I was very upset over the fact his parents could send him to this boot camp just because they did not like his behavior. No one ever questioned his parents' reasoning. It is scary to think that children under the age 18 can be imprisoned in this way.
