@wayword my Dallas friends all refer to stacked highway over passes as "mix masters". I grew up in Houston and have lived a lot of places, but have never heard this term. Besides overpass, I've called them flyovers. Am I missing something? Or is this unique to Dallas?

One of my favorite teaching moments is when one of my students loudly corrects another student when they refer to me as "Ms. Morgan". It is interesting that the mistaken title speaker tends to be male & the corrector female. #mytitleisdr #kiddo #DrJillBiden
