About Me
- Don
- I am a retired college professor in the Southwestern United States, communication studies my field. I've ALWAYS been interested in language and have done several light-hearted but serious page-a-day calendars on the theme for family and friends, the younger contingent of whom has encouraged me to do a blog. This is it!
