Chris-

I decided to snoop around for answers to these questions, but searches
including the words COUNTRY, BOY, HYMN, RESENTMENT, and STARLIGHT kept
landing me in sites with attitudes that evoked frustration very much
congruent with the current tangent. I feel like I am in a PKDick novel. But,
I am determined to click my heels until I find my way back to
pynchonland...sorry...I'm trying...I'm really really trying...
