Technology for Mythology/Folklore

So far in my college career, I have pretty much exclusively used Canvas, Microsoft products, and some of the Google applications. I would say I am fairly proficient in all of those but have little to no experience with anything else. I am still getting the hang of Blogger and trying to fine tune how I want my blog to work so I am definitely going to have a bit of a learning curve to get used to these new tools. I would definitely like to get better at using graphics and such as that is something I would never learn to do in any of my other classes. I am interested to learn these new sites and skills and am sure they will help me one day down the road!

Week 9 Story: Why Cats and Dogs aren't Friends

Why Cats and Dogs aren't Friends (Cat and Dog Fighting from Wikipedia Commons ) There once was a man and a wife who lived in a village. They weren’t rich but they weren’t poor either. One day, foolishly, they decided to sell a valuable gold ring to increase their riches. Unbeknownst to them, the gold ring was magic and ensured that its owner would always be of comfortable wealth. After selling the gold ring they quickly became very poor. They were so poor that they were unable to provide filling meals to their pets: a dog named Rigby and a cat named Holly. “We’re starving Rigby. It’s been months since we’ve had a filling meal,” complained Holly. “I know. If only we could get the gold ring back. Things would be better,” replied Rigby. “I know!” exclaimed Holly. “We could get the ring back. The new owner lives just across the river.” “You know they keep the gold ring locked in a chest. How would we ever get it back?” Rigby questioned. “I’ll catch a mous...
