A Note about These References

As a former English Composition teacher, I almost listed complete publication info in MLA
format.  Then I told myself to get a grip.  If you need the full publication info, though, give me
a call--or if I'm pet sitting for you I'll be happy to lend the book to you.  I'll bring it by when I
visit your pets.
