Zoyd's Work

[Terrance]

Why Clara Bow? 

Why all the other Pynchon mismatched programs? 

It's an ongoing gag, right? 

What's the gag? 

Would Prairie even know who CB was? Even if this made for the Tube movie
existed, why would she be watching this movie? Nothing else on?  


Moreover, why would she be so TV/Film saturated and savvy as to be
interested in CB? 

Come on. 


Later, Prairie and Che  talk about their families. Deftly alluding to
Elvis and Patsy Cline these kids sound like parents. The background
music for their exploits--a sprightly oboe-and-string rendition of Chuck
Berry's Maybelene? Che's mom watched MTV all day. Frenesi and Flash have
a boy and he watches McNeil-Lare. 

Your fifteen, Slide. 

And seen it all. 

How is it that these kids have seen it all and their parents seem to
have missed it all? 

BTW the carrier pigeons come from someplace far across the ocean.
