Just goes to show college grads know about as much as the next idiot. Is
there any Real debate about why Pynchon's so-called mug is on CNN? Is there
still a question regarding the mainstream media's total and complete sellout
to their sponsors? Gimme a break. 

Let's talk about something else now. Who gives a fuck which one is Pynchon.
You love his works, not his teeth.

"People may be intrigued by this figure but they also resent him and mock him
and want to dirty him up and watch his face distort in shock and fear when
the concealed photographer leaps out of the trees . . . In our world we sleep
and eat the image and pray to it and wear it too. The writer who won't show
his face is encroaching on holy turf. He's playing God's own trick."
