Welcome to the blog for Prof. John Talbird's English 220 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.

The letter from Kentucky Section one
The author opens up by naming people and offering a very very brief introduction to what appears to the reader at first just random people from Kentucky, but then after looking up the word beget it could be the authors family that goes back generations and generations to the start of Kentucky becoming a state, then the author goes on to tell the meaning of Kentucky and how this was something taught in his school and changed several times as he grew older. The whole first section set the tone that the authors whole life revolves around this state along with the culture in it.
