          I am assuming this is old news to everyone on this list 
          but me, but yesterday I saw a bumper sticker, "My 
          other car is a Pynchon novel", in my local Target 
          parking garage. I did a search and found this:

          How long have these been around, and why don't 
          I have one? And what the hell does it mean?

          This did come up a while ago here, but not everyone 
          might have BEEN here at the time, and me, I'm glad 
          to be reminded, because I want a couple of those 
          stickers AND one of their "My Record Collection Can
          Beat Up Your Record Collection" t-shirts (and I 
          wouldn't mess with my Planet of the Apes memorabilia 
          while you're at it, either).  But ...

My bumper sticker reads: "My other car is a broom". . . .
