Hi Sean,

I really enjoy reading the articles you write for this site. You do thorough research and the information is delivered in such a clear and entertaining manner. I do hope you continue to contribute these articles. I don’t write poetry, but I do enjoy your insights on the art form. Clearly, you spend a good deal of time and thought on each article you write. It is appreciated.

Edwin Newman (Strictly Speaking, A Civil Tongue) also had a healthy love of puns. He thought of them as niceties of the language. In one of those two books, he has a whole chapter of puns!
