“There were moments - when Jeopardy came on, in the car during radio trivia challenges, or for practically any question I couldn't answer in any subject - that Rogerson simply amazed me. I started to seek out facts, just to stump him, but it never worked. He was that sharp.

"In physics," I sprung on him as we sat in the Taco Bell drive-through, "what does the capital letter W stand for?"

"Energy," he said, handing me my burrito.

Sitting in front of my parents' house as he kissed me goodnight: "Which two planets are almost identical in size?"

"Duh," he said, smoothing my hair back, "Venus and Earth."

"Rogerson," I asked him sweetly as we sat watching a video in the pool house, "where would I find the pelagic zone?"

"In the open sea," he said. "Now shut up and eat your Junior Mints.”
