Alright. jbor is now spoofing pynchonoid's email address.
But this is interesting: "What a sad and tawdry spectacle Dylan 
makes as sex gear huckster."
1. Looking at a pretty woman makes one a "sad and tawdry" spectacle.
2. Underwear is "sex gear."
3. She has a great face.   One might not notice the underwear.

It seems that Trickster is walking here somewhere nearby.

To correct an earlier misstatement by myself,  Zoyd is not a 
shaman, he is a Trickster.  The two are antithetical.
