I'm in the Halloween spirit today, and by the time you receive this issue, you'll probably be smashing out the final effects of that Thanksgiving meal. If anyone can make the connection between Frankenstein and a bowl of soup, I'll be amazed because I'm the first to admit it's really a stretch (hint: think "Young Frankenstein").
We here at the Screamin' Otter Periodical are happy with the response to our first couple of issues, in addition to the exposure in the Class of 1990 section in the fall Notre Dame Magazine. Thanks to all of you who have given us a call, written in, provided updates, etc. After Issue 2 went out, we heard from Scott Sonnek, Jim Schilder, Tim O'Keefe, Mark Korzenecki, Vince Martinez, Ralph Parente '89, Jeff Smith '91, Joel Williams '91, and Chris Kyhl '89, just to name a few. We've expanded our "Outside the Lines" segment a bit more to include updates on Otters from other classes and appreciate all of the news. If you have new news about yourself or other Otters (particularly those we've had little to no information on in our three issues), please let us know. For some Otters, we've been sending the Periodical to their parents' address because we have no idea where they are, so addresses and phone numbers are always appreciated.
For those of you who care, sorry it took so long to get this issue out. Good thing we named this the "Periodical" instead of "Quarterly"! I've had a very busy summer and fall, like most of you, I'm sure. Additionally, I keep pushing back the deadline waiting for Gerard's Juiceman article, which he was going to give to me in MARCH!! Here I sit on October 18th still waiting. And the winner of the Procrastination Award is...
Enough of my blabbering. We hope you enjoy the Screamin' Otter Periodical, and if you have any suggestions, contributions, or information, drop us a line (but try not to hang us like one of the Tools did).
To the Editor,
I would like to set the record straight on my alternative lifestyle that was described as "mooching" in the Spring 1992 Issue...
Recently it became clear to me that working sucks. So I quit.
Thank you,
Christopher J. Kyhl '89
On the recent "Inverse Cubs Trip":
Gerard: "The Inverse Cubs Trip was packed with quality people however, the turnout was weak."
Alex: "I was very pleased with the turnout. The van was very crowded and if there were any more people, I wouldn't have had a comfortable ride."
Snake: "The Inverse Cubs Trip was a good time except for the fact that Gerard was weak and Alex was uncomfortable."
