Pynchon on Simpsons

[kelber at mindspring.com]

The thing I find surprising about his appearance on the Simpsons (aside from the obvious surprise that he'd do it at all) is his voice.  He's retained a very strong Long Island accent (unless he's just exaggerating for the show) after spending most of his adult life in areas or circles which should have helped diminish the accent.

>It's the first. Blew my little mind, running across it during my Sunday night ritual visit to Springfield and enviorns. Haven't seen the second visitation online (yet), but as I recall the joke consisted of TRP using the titles of his books top describe some food being served at a party. Starts out with Marge askin' "Whatda ya think?" Anyone desiring to correct/castigate/expand and deconstruct as regards my knowledge on this subject is cordially invited.
