Hello everyone!  I am about halfway through the book and I'm sure all of your have noticed that there are many references throughout the book to mythical creatures, historical persons, and mucho mas Spanglish and Spanish phrases and idioms.  There is a wonderful website that will help decipher much of it.  It is especially wonderful because it is grouped by chapter and each entry is listed in the order in which it appears in the book.  Of course it is too long to print out but it is a handy reference if you want to cross reference as you read.  The website is called The Annotated Oscar Wao and the URL is http://www.annotated-oscar-wao.com/index.html . 

Please check it out and have a great day.  I can't wait to see you all next Saturday.
