VLVL2 (9.5): "Kick Out, the Jambs"

[Dave Monroe]

   "They found the Trans-Am under camouflage netting
down among some alder and moved out by way of old
logging roads, zigzagging toward I-5, Takeshi
consulting maps, DL driving, singing

   Oh, kick out, the jambs, motherfuck-er,
   'Cause here comes, that Stove once again--
   You thought I was somethin' in Olathe,
   Wait till, you see me in Fort Wayne" 

(VL, Ch. 9, p. 191)


"Trans-Am"

Cf. ...

"Speeding down the freeway in a rented Firebird, they
both realized it was the first time since the room in
Tokyo that they'd been alone together." (VL, Ch. 9, p.
166)

"Oh, kick, out, the jambs"

p. 191 "Kick Out the Jambs"    If this is a reference
to the MC5 tune, Pynchon (or his editor) should have
known that the correct spelling is "Jams."
