I was a professor of curriculum and instruction at East Tennessee State University and am now in emeritus status. Currently, I teach English composition part-time at George Mason University. I have taught in Cincinnati, Turkey, China and the Czech Republic.

House sitter
Butter, our fifteen year old tabby, knows something is up when the suitcases come out, and he isn't happy. While we're away, he's in charge of household security, assisted by my neighbor Charlotte Pubal, our friends Dennis and Marie Cope. Amy Ramsey and her girls will be in every day to feed and pet Butter. Sometimes when we return, he declines to speak to us for a couple of weeks.
