Create your own myth.
It's not hard to find a conservative who says s/he "watch[ed] the wife of the nominee break down into tears yesterday evening at the treatment being given to her husband by Senate Democrats." (S/he wasn't "watching" too hard, since the tears came in response to a question from Republican Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina. James Wolcott has the goods.) But can you find a conservative who has corrected this mistake? The myth is more rewarding.
Rats -- I already broke my resolution to ignore those who complain about "how partisan and out of control the whole process has become" and then talk only about Democrats.

Absolutely! Go nuts! Although I'm a little distressed that it's so apparent that I'm older. I should cut back on my references to Glenn Miller and Geritol.
I personally find GR the most imposing of Pynchon's book, and would recommend persuading people to start with Lot 49 or Vineland, which is unappreciated. Or underappreciated.

I've heard of and seen House of Leaves, and I've been tempted to pick it up, but I've never quite made the jump. What is to recommend it?
Hmm. Might be tough sledding for those of us who are ignorant of everything that's happened in film theory since Vachel Lindsay.
