Minute Paper 1/17/08

In class today the articles we read discussed some interesting points. The first article brought to light the idea of "mental real estate" and the ability of people to really stake their hold in a part of our brains. This made perfect sense to me, as it was clearly displayed that there are certain figures in entertainment who clearly have a stake in everyone's minds. Even just the notion of "Harry Potter" can bring forth an entire list of ideas and feelings about the story or characters. I found both of the readings to be pretty interesting and thought provoking.
