I'm very sorry not to be with you today. My cold never fully cleared up. Instead, it blossomed into a sinus infection, a misery I hope you've never experienced. I hope to be back at school on Tuesday. Read David Foster Wallace's commencement speech (and listen if you care to). Seventh period students, I forgot to tell you that in addition to being a towering figure of late-twentieth-century postmodern fiction, Wallace was also a local back in his youth. He went to Yankee Ridge elementary school and Urbana High. Mr. Rayburn taught with his mom at Parkland.
Okay, now for peer editing. See below.
Best regards,
Dr. Majerus
