Aims, just make sure that you pick a topic that is a question (a why or how or cause or effect type question), not just a what happened. The most common error my students make with research papers is asking something obvious, like "What was Susan B. Anthony's life like", which turns into a factual regurgitation rather than a critical research essay. Instead, ask something like "Why did Susuan B. Anthony become involved in the women's rights movement?" or "How did Susan B. Anthony affect the women's rights movement?". Basically, you can test your thesis question by asking if you can look up the answer in one place. If you can't--if it's going to take analysis of multiple sources--then you have a good topic question.

Could I somehow transition it into how the lowest minority to turn out at the polls is, in fact, women?
Mmm...interesting. Women went through hunger strikes and were imprisoned and force fed just so other women could choose not to vote.
I took my nap earlier this afternoon. Right now I'm baking some pasta for dinner.
Christopher tried to cut Owen's hair again. Only this time he shaved it. Unevenly. Boy looks like he's ready for basic training. I keep telling myself that it will grow back.
Anyone else flash on regular "what Christopher did to Owen's hair" posts over the next fifteen years? Or maybe ten - after that it'll be "what Owen did to Owen's hair."

Exactly.
Although, the retail suggestion is about shopping. ANd I love shopping.
And it wasn't (completely) a smart ass suggestion, Aimee. There has been a major change in the way people buy, sell, and market things, and it's not all Wal-Mart/Target-ization
I predict that it would be hard to limit yourself to 2500 words on e-tailing. But maybe that's good.

Now I want them all to be archived.
Roller Derby History!
More Roller Derby!
Also, you get extra interview points for interviewing Sail's daughter.

I'm ready to start letting him cut his own. I think he might do a better job.
Alas, I don't think I can ask a good question about roller derby to warrant 2500 words.
Is roller derby just another way women are sexualized for men's enjoyment or is it a way for women to empower themselves through sport?
