Oh wow. Cue DOUBLE-Homer head-slap "D'oh!" -- I read the chapter a few weeks ago, and that just utterly slipped my mind. How could I forget Nutella Vontz?  Proof that you can never trust anything I say about Pynchon ever again.

    Hey, she really wasn’t kidding about Guys and Dolls after all!


    “Saturday night at Kugelblitz, despite the lighting crew getting stoned and
    confusing or forgetting cues and the kids playing Sky and Sarah, who have
    been going steady in real life, breaking up loudly and publicly at the
    dress rehearsal, Guys and Dolls is a roaring success, which will look even
    better on the DVD Mr. Stonechat, the director, is shooting of it, given the
    many sight-line issues at the Scott and Nutella Vontz  Auditorium, whose
    architect owing to some sort of mental condition kept changing his mind
    about such nuances of design as getting rows of seats to actually face the
    stage and so forth”

    I’m rather chuffed - this is great. Allen - who knew?
