Misc. Dogs in Pynchon v dogs in Shakespeare.

[Mark Kohut]

I was saving this ob to aggregate with some misc. others as I read 
Shakescene.....THEN

 *it's all over the interwebs, Obama quotes hendrix: "They treat me like a 
dog"....*

Everything connects.

Dogs in Shakespeare vs. dogs in Pynchon. Seems almost all dog references in 
Shakespeare are of a negative kind...as in somoene calling someone a dog, or a 
dog-metaphor you wouldn't want to be called. Even the most famous "Ev'ry dog has 
his day" is a gentle positive nod to the tough life of a dog then.
