That actually was the closest book to me when I found Ian’s post with this task. I have a bunch of overflow books that won’t fit in my bookshelves on the shelf above my monitor. This one was lying on top of the others and was easiest to get at. It was given to me by my admin when I worked for Globix, and I think it was a commentary on my use of the English language at the time. It’s all about cussing effectively. Thanks for the great pocket reference, Yadira!
