Today is the anniversary of "Living with Language" on "blogspot.com". Why did I start the blog on that particular day, November 2, 2012? Here's how I recalled it on New Year's Eve:
"The little girl Abigael crying and expressing her impatience with both Mitt Romney and 'Bronco' Bama, home videoed by her mother, which then went viral, was just too precious a moment with language to let pass by. The president had been likeable to many, but to see him transformed into a Western Cowboy Hero by a four-year-old through her quite understandable misnaming told me the blog had to begin that very night. And so it did."
