I'm about 100 pages into D'Arconville's Cat--noticed the name of the cat 
is Spellvexit (spell-vex-it?)  haven't gotten to anything related to the 
cat yet but sure am enjoying the pynchonian and non-pynchonian (more 
joycean) by which I mean a satirical/melancholic precision which is quite 
astounding.

BTW Lotion interview in Esquire was pretty funny--you knew Pynchon would 
ask about drugs.  Thought split photo of Lotion would include our guy 
somewhere when I first saw it. Noticed there are more than four faces on 
the Nobody's Cool CD which of course are all blurred-is he on the cover?. 
 My one quibble from the interview was that TRP probaby had the words to 
the songs  (I can't make'em all out) which he and they expound upon in 
the article--I mean who would ever figure out Sandra?
