Been bugging me for days now that I neglected to
mention Apocalypse Now along with Weekend and Monty
Python and the Holy Grail.  Am convinced that
Gravity's Rainbow: Now a Major Motion Picture is not
the impossibilty one might at first believe it to be. 
Except maybe for talking somebody into actually paying
to make it, not to mention getting Pynchon's
permission, not to mention cooperation.  I keep
running the trailer in my head.  Okay, more so than
ever, much catching up to do ...
