Bob Honey Just Do Stuff

Bob Honey Who Just Do Stuff – Sean Penn

From the book, early on in our tale?

Bob knew the media had limited success in telling the country how to think, but was exemplary at telling it what to think about, to discuss, and to value. Page 17.

There is that.

Sidebar item, inspired by current events? When motivated to protest? There’s a correct way and then, less effective methods. Riots, violence, yeah, never ends well, and ultimately sends the wrong message. Writing a satirical novel? If I could only tie this one to Kurt Vonnegut.

“It seems many of the towns are built either on the back of vo-techs or on the job security offered by various states’ corrections departments. These are just one observer’s thoughts from within a white Pontiac drifting through the American nightscape.” Page 92.

Too cute by half. The antithesis of the American dream, to drive from California to Miami, FLA?

Something about doing acid in New Orleans? Is there a movie tie-in, motion picture classics metaphor?

Strange little tome. Lyrical at times, and densely prosaic, in the same breath.
