Sail Away

Want to hear something stupid?

This has been going on for thirty years.

In crossword puzzles the clue is "Orinoco Flow artist." And I immediately see a painting of a river in Maine. That's what gets me stuck a million times.

I'm must be thinking of Orono.

And I don't know anything about that either except from crossword puzzles.

I should know from something more current, something closer, if only I cared.


It's a river in Venezuela and Colombia. Duh. Third largest measured by water flow.

That does it. Now I got this one. I totally got this. Goodbye forever to this river-related conflation.  Do svidaniya, don't get any on ya.
