Paper Writing

[Archangel]

Scottish music: everybody in the song dies, everybody.
Irish music: everybody but the singer dies, and sometimes he does right after the song.
Ozark Love songs: the loved one dies, the woman dies at the hands of her lover.
Appalachian music: we think they all died, we'll wait.
Blues: might as well be dead.
Country: dog's dead, car's dead, job's gone, wife's gone and it'll get worse soon.
Rock and Roll: dog's back, car's fast, am on vacation, meet my woman, and it's getting better.

How's that for a paper?

I used to spend 3 or 4 hours just writing the thesis statement and working out the outline from there...too often I discovered I wanted to write a different paper and had to keep reworking the thesis statement. Once I got that right, I was home free.
