 Vineland by Thomas Pynchon
Later than usual one summer morning in 1984, Zoyd Wheeler drifted awake in sunlight through a creeping fig that hung in the window, with a squadron of blue jays stomping around on the roof.
Collected Fictions by Jorge Luis Borges
In 1517, Fray Bartolomé de las Casas, feeling great pity for the Indians who grew worn and lean in the drudging infernos of the Antillean gold mines, proposed to Emperor Charles V that Negroes be brought to the isles of the Caribbean, so that they might grow worn and lean in the drudging infernos of the Antillean gold mines.

"Engagements"
posted Thursday, November 14, 2002:
 I don't remember the first time I felt the thrill of swiping that slick plastic card, that first, quick seduction, or the subsequent spiral that's lead up to today, but the history is spread out before me now, a paper chorus line singing my name. Finally deciding to do something about it, I lined 'em up, took aim and fired.
Don't worry, everything will be alright, "In the future, we will all be married to J.Lo for 15 minutes."
