Other Writings

        I love the English language.  Of course, as a college professor in an area where most of my students are not native-speaking Americans, that can be frustrating.  When not marking papers, though, I often enjoy playing with the language for my own pleasure.  Here's some of the things I've written.

Up From The Depths -- Curious about the accident that made me a gimp [I'm allowed to use that term]?  This will tell you all about it.

The Smith Beach Experience -- This was first serialized at Eastern Shore Online.   I'm also working on turning it into a memoir, and will post more about that as it happens.

Philosophical Reflections on Shorebirds -- Have you ever considered a comparative study of bird flight?

The Crucifixion -- An Easter Musing

Alex -- This is a work-in-progress.  I would not normally put something undone in here, but Alex is a popular pup, and I think people will appreciate these notes.
