The Bathroom Readers' Institute is a dedicated team of researchers, writers, and editors whose mission is to satisfy that forgotten literary caste-- those who read in the privacy of their privies. Since 1988, the BRI has successfully published a new edition of Uncle John's Bathroom Reader every year. They sift out the most interesting and little-known facts from books, newspapers, magazines, the Internet, and of course, regular readers. The result, a great big pile of pop culture, forgotten history, strange lawsuits, origins of everyday things, weird news, and loads more. It's our 16th year running (so to speak) I mean, we're still going (uhh) strong. A light hearted, easy-to-read collection of facts, quotes, history, science, word-origins, pop culture, gossip, humor ...and more! Organized by length--"Short" (a quick read), "Medium" (1-3 pages), "Long" (for those visits when something a little more involved is required), and to satisfy every demand, our popular "Extended Sitting Section" (for a leg-numbing experience). Running feet on every page provide a "book within a book" of weird facts.
