Damn. Almost got to name a Natter, but lost out to the literary types (which is only funny given my profession would seem to indicate I was one of them).
Please...Wesley...why can't I stay?

You'd think. But no, you turned on us for mere citrus.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I have a dream! A dream where I get what I want and Scrappy is disappointed. I may not get there with you....No wait! I did.

Clementines are not mere citrus! They are...they are...juicy! I had one for lunch in honor of the new thread. Now, I'm all sad. Crying over my clementine.

That's why it was a good name--movies, American folksong, fruit--a PLETHORA of references.

Pffft. You're never going to beat Pynchon in a battle of references.

Well don't take Hec's crack-smoking word for it! Me, I was referring to the gawdawful folk song. But see, that's the beauty of the thread title. It works on so many levels.

Honestly, the Pynchon novela is almost unreadably bad. If it hadn't been on the midterm, I totally would have skipped it.
