All 7 current Roupers as well as Roup-Related Individual (RRI) Becca C. went to Rouper Lucy's reading down the street. Unfortunately everybody had a very bad time so in order to salvage the night we had a reading of our own. Everybody went to their rooms and wrote or contemplated silently for 10 minutes and then assembled in the upstairs studio space to present our work. It was much better than the other reading and had almost the same attendance. These are the recordings which were done on a microcassette recorder and then transferred to tape. We hope you enjoy them!!!

Landlord gone, but a new aspect of Roup House is discovered.
As you know our landlady was here this weekend. We may discuss this in greater detail another time. However one interesting incident is when she referred to new Rouper RJ as "number four roommate." This suggests that, as RJ is on the second floor, the first floor roommates are #1-3.
Since Brian and Lucy were the first to live here, they would be considered #1 and #2. Since they are both exceedingly humble, they decided to share the #1 spot together, and make former Rouper April, who moved in briefly after they did, #2. This makes Seth #3 as he moved in after April.
However, we will shortly be in the company of another temporary roommate, H., who will be here before our official long-term second floor roommate, Ron. This complicates things. Since April got her own permanent Rouper Number, will this also be true of H.? Will Ron have to have a number higher than that of either of the third floor roommates, or should the numbers be ordered logically by floor? If the Roupers were ranked by quality, how would the list look different? How does this list compare to the list of Sliptknot band members? Who is our #0? Please advise!
#1. Lucy / Brian
#2. April
#3. Seth
#4. RJ
#5. Autumn
#6. H. / Ron (????)
#7. Joe
#8. Ross

another classic joke
How many Roupers does it take to change a light bulb?
The real question is how many people are walking to the Giant Eagle and how long will it take for everyone to get ready?
CLASSIC JOKES REVISITED
How many Roupers does it take to change a light bulb?
Depends on who has a job and can afford one.
