What to read next?

[robinlandseadel at comcast.net]

Hey, I'm always up for Froot-Loops and Stellar Jays all bulked-up 
on a dog-food diet—this is the one book most easily visualized as 
a long, long Simpsons episode:

         ". . . ."I'm Blood," and Vato immediatly piped up, "I'm Vato!" 
         Together, "We just some couple of mu-thuh-fuck-kers/Out—" 
         whereupon a disagrement arose, Vato going on with the straight
         Disney lyric, "Out to have some fun," while Blood, continuing to 
         depart from it, preferred "out to kick some ass," turning 
         immediately to Vato. "What's 'is 'have some fun' shit?". . . ."
         Vineland, page 181

I really don't know how many times I've read this little gem, but probably 
more times for pleasure than any of Pynchon's other books. 

Vineland's got my favorite cartoons qua cartoons in all of Pynchon's 
books [though Al Mar-Fuad wins on points.] 

And Little-Miss-Free-And-Easy's jaunt through Amerikkka's various
ass-kicking departments winds up be-coming attractions for Buddhist
themes in Against the Day. Not to mention the Girl's taste for a 
certain kind of domination, a variety of domination we've become
quite comfortable with, thanks to the Tube. 

Good Book.
