"'Don't mind Scott,' Zoyd hastily, 'he's a
surfer--so long, Scott--he had a little run-in a few
years ago with some, uh, young gentlemen of Mexican
origin, so sometimes--'
"'In the parking lot at the Taco Bell in Hermosa,
yes a memorable series of evenings, much celebrated in
the folklore of my people'--this being in the early
days of a Ricardo Montalban impersonation that would
over the years grow more refined." (VL, Ch. 3, p. 23)
