Lisstpvr (378) brief unannotated list of topics so far

[Raphael Saltwood]

1) does the defenestration strike a jarring note? Defend or what would you put there?
2) Are you nostalgic for the 60s? What, if anything, in VL conjures them for you?
3) Brief census of vehicles and pick one to comment on
4) do you like VL, why or why not?
5) truly brief recap of 3 important conversations -
   a) Hector with Zoyd at bowling alley
    b) BV with Zoyd right before his “extrajudicial” gut punch
    c) Hector with Frenesi near the end
- and equally brief opinion on meaning
6) Zoyd pre-Frenesi and the tule fog
7) Hector and Zoyd at the defenestration
8) Che

16) BV and Vato, towards the end
17) Ortho Bob
18) DLs mom
19) “Y-you mean life *isn't* Vegas?" who, context, implications
20) things friends said about Vineland when you suggested or loaned or gave them a copy (with commentary if at all possible)
21) mention an article on Vineland and at least one point made in it (with commentary optional but appreciated) For a truly small topic mention *only* one point in it but comment to repletion
22) explicate “Girlie with a gun”

And the too-big topics


1) musical, Tubal and movie references

2) labor, protest, PR3 references

3)  Vietnam references (RC, Vato & Blood, etc)

4) Frenesi and DL

5) Frenesi and BV

6) Frenesi and Zoyd

7) Prairie qua Prairie & Prairie vis a vis Frenesi, I24, Sister Rochelle,

8) Zoyd's friendly interactions, brief annotated census

9) DL and Takeshi

10) Is there a moral, and if so, what is it? Ethical takeaways?

11) is the D&G fakebook more than a throwaway reference? Are there philosophical /
theoretical / religious underpinnings & if so, what, how and why? Lots of overlap with previous topic, or is there a non-philosophical ethics?
