I haven’t written any blogs or updated this WordPress website for some time. I’ve now added an essay, “The Beginning of the End of the U. S. of A.?” and, under the Poems menu, some silly COVID-19 poems.
August Update
I have added a new section here on Art and Archaeology in Comics and have posted there my presentation of Pam’s collection. Please feel free to download this and share it.
I have also posted on my blog site, murrayasturias.blogspot.com, a silly little business proposal.
Update
While I am submitting blogs about our new life in Oviedo, Spain, at https://murrayasturias.blogspot.com, because the formatting there can be a little wonky, I thought that I would add here the Word version of my last blog here as well.Political Correctness in the Monastery of Santa María Valdediós 2
About My Archive
As a retired teacher who has fled the US and is now living in Spain, and as someone who has until now eschewed most forms of social media, I am belatedly beginning to create an online presence.
To that end, I am using this WordPress website to archive some of my miscellaneous non-academic writing. I hope that some of my friends and former colleagues may enjoy this collection, which consists mainly of political editorials, light-weight essays, and silly poems. I also post here the latest version of my US History textbook, Key Moments in American History.

Although I am not an active blogger, I have a blog page where I hope to record some of my impressions of my life in Oviedo: https://murrayasturias.blogspot.com.es
