Came in midway through GR, did V., TCOL49, now (and,
hopefully, back to, shortly) M&D, whereas I've never
properly reread Vineland, so ... but while I'm not
particularly enthusiastic 'bout SL, I know some here
are, "interesting ones, at that," so ...

Slow Learner would at least be Pynchon; Moby-Dick, for
all intents and purposes, no less or more fascinating,
no less or more, er, longer or shorter, than Mason &
Dixon, which I do hope to see safely home to harbor,
so ... so maybe those short stories'd be a welcome and
needed change of pace, which M-D, vis a vis M&D, would
decidedly NOT be.  But let's at least go through the
motions, give M&D it's due, s'alright?  S'alright ...
