 * Today we started off with a role call question. We were asked about the one thing that we want to change about ourselves. It was fun. **
 * 10:03 Now we are talking about K&C and the character Luna Moth. Quinn said that he thinks that she may be about a harsh justice in the world and Lexi thinks that she is trying to show how a woman can be sexy but also business like. At the time, Woman were used in comics as a pin up and talked about for their looks. Luna moth is sexy but smart. **


 * 10:09 Mr.Neal is showing us photos of Luna moths because they are beautiful and mysterious but not usually thought of as that. Peter says that he thinks of moths as the dark side of a butterfly but also delicate. **


 * Page 268. Intercalary chapter. Description of Judy Dark. She is being compared to a human umbrella. Judy is isolated and works in a basement so she is buttoned down like an umbrella. She has a lot going on hidden underneath her surface and then she becomes a moth. the moth starts off as a caterpillar and comes out of its cocoon as a butterfly. Same as an umbrella. Luna moth is the ultimate power and she is a metaphor for the power of authors and imagination. **
 * Rosa wouldn’t do anything other than kiss Joe but she hooked up and had sex with some other man. Maybe she loves him so she doesn’t want to ruin it with sex first. Chabon also said that once he loved a man so much he wouldn’t have sex with him . **


 * 10:23 Page 286. **
 * “It makes me very sorry to hear...” He thinks that Joe has his head in the clouds and needs to realize that he isnt going to change anything. The shark of dread (that we talked about yesterday) is what DC just said out loud. **


 * Joe thinks that he is the escapist. **


 * 10:50 Page 200 **
 * “when he did...” Ironic because Joe expects to find a brilliant laboratory but finds a gross, dingy office. **


 * 11:00 Page 202 **
 * “the revelation stopped mid-sentence...” **
 * Another conflict of fantasy vs. reality. **
