Amusements
So you, too, like fruitcake?—Robert
Walser upon being

A few of my essays.
"Real life"
stories, from the trenches of the academy.
Sunrise
and sunset times all over the world (and a pile of other interesting stuff

The Little Giants Math Book, a
booklet I wrote on how to succeed in a college mathematics course.

Follow this link to find a list of all the species of birds I've seen in

"yard lists". You will also find photographs of some of these birds.

education, which, surprisingly, I think, seem to be beyond the ken of many
academics.
