Words to the Wise: A Lighthearted Look at the English Language
Description:
A compilation of questions and answers about the English language from the author's weekly "call in" radio program, Words to the Wise, heard on WTCM 580 AM in Traverse City, Michigan. Listeners ask about spelling, punctuation, grammar and word origin, and Mike answers with his particular brand of humor, clarity, and precision. Words to the Wise will make you laugh at zany word facts and clever slogans and make you learn but he always gravitates to the fun side of language.
"Who put the cat in kitty-corner?"
"Did Jimi Hendrix actually sing, 'scuse me while I kiss this guy?"
"Is rhinotillexomania contagious-and are you sure you don't already suffer from it?"
