So glad to see gordonoids still reading “The River Why…” which is an annual read for me and the book I gift out most to people.
Reading it outloud to one another is a wonderful thing to do — my roommate from Gordon and I read it outloud one weekend in 1989 while lounging around a lake in new hampshire. good times. good laughs. great literature.
Thank goodness for the oregon extension.

Christine, I didn’t realize that you were an OE’er. I am too, fall of 1999. I am a huge fan of the River Why… have read it several times, gotten my parents to read it and, finally, Peter. I’m glad that he is liking it.
Now that I think about it, I haven’t met anyone out there who didn’t go to the Oregon Extension who has read it (or the Brothers K) besides those I’ve recommened it to. Maybe we should start a large scale campaign!

There is a reason why you got whipped by your wife. Unless the game has changed, it’s the same one that’s been there for years, and she’s got the questions memorized.

ahem! I do NOT have the questions memorized! I just happen to be extreemly well versed in the topics covered in the 1970′s Genius version of Trival Persuit.
It may be that, on occasion, I am asked a question that I had been asked previously, in which case, I’d know the answer. But should I be punished for having such a good memory??
