We read the story of Rip Van Winkle in class, a traditional story written by Washington Irving. The story was about a man who fell asleep in the Catskill mountains for 20 years. I truly enjoyed your “remixed” Rip Van Winkle skits in class, yet I had to think to myself, if I fell alseep for 20 years, what would I find when I woke up? Think about it, if you fell asleep today in 2009 and woke up 20 years later, it would be 2029. What do you think your life would be like? How would the world change?
