Stolen papers

Hello All,

This afternoon, a thief broke into my car and stole your essays. They must have been really good essays!

Unfortunately, that means everyone will have to re-print their essays and hand them in next Monday. I would say Wednesday but since there is little chance that everyone will read this blogpost, it's impossible for me to hold each of you accountable for it.

While this crime has very few benefits for anyone, I did find one. It means that you all have one more week to polish your essays. No one will be the wiser. Well, except the thief, for having read your amazingly insightful and thought provoking essays on love and technology. Too bad I'll have to wait until Monday to read them myself.

Signing off (from not my computer),
B.A.
