Have a look at this publicity shot for Bleeding Edge that Huff Post published. One of these people wasn't planning on wearing the T-shirt that day, certainly wasn't about to walk around in public wearing it but was pulled in at the last minute, for a laugh perhaps. Look at that man, the shape of his face. His ears, don't they stick out in a way that seems somehow familiar? See how he smiles, just enough to hide his teeth, and haven't you seen dimples on the side of the mouth like that somewhere before? How old do you think this man looks; in his seventies maybe?
Maybe we'll never know the sight of Ruggles' face again. An unsolvable mystery.

I think I caught him in the Inherent Vice movie.

To be honest, I hardly remember anything from that movie, other than that Joanna Newsom's character didn't actually exist, and that Sportello operated out of an abortion clinic. It was a forgettable movie...

Anyway, there was a scene when Sportello and Owen Wilson's character were in this huge mansion of some music industry guy (I think he was a music industry guy). During this scene, there is a shot of Owen Wilson and co. walking through the mansion, through some halls, and into a big room. It's shot so that you see the back of the group, and the people they walk past. One such person looks like a little hunched-over old man whose face is a little blurry. I think it's Pynchon.

Some say that Pynchon's cameo stood behind a door and waved at the camera during one quickly edited shot. Others will say he appears as a brief extra so deeply in the background that you could never recognise him, even if you knew what he looked like. Some claim that the cameo is completely bogus.

But one thing's for certain: if you say Thomas Pynchon's Inherent Vice three times in the mirror at midnight, surrounded by candles and DVD copies of Inherent Vice (trust me, this doesn't work with the book or the blu-ray, I tried it), Pynchon will come out of the mirror, cook you a banana breakfast.

Found it. Photo taken by James Bone.

>Schools in New York disgorge their charges at 3pm. Pynchon arrived like clockwork at 3.05pm. The moment I saw his tall, ungainly frame, child in tow, gesticulating to a fellow parent, I recognised him as the elusive author.

>He looks as I imagine Don Quixote would do tilting at the windmills: angular, aristocratic, but somehow clownish. He wore a black (army surplus?) anorak with the hood up despite the sunshine. (In that way, he really did resemble the police sketch on the Wanted poster for the Unabomber.) As he ambled closer, I could see his elongated snout and brush moustache, teeth asplay, like a Ralph Steadman caricature.

>It struck me that there was something massively silly about a grown man mounting such a charade. I stepped boldly forward, aimed - aware that in this instant a charge would leap between our two opposite poles, not a thunderbolt, nor the force of Gravity's Rainbow, but something more profound than the simple ray of light that entered my $30 lens.

>Pynchon tried to brazen it out, feigning disregard, hoping I was just another tourist in these parts. I clicked.

>Panicked, he swivelled sharply and beetled away at right angles towards the kerb. I manoeuvred in front of him again and, like a boxer on the ropes, he bobbed to avoid the next blow, throwing his arm across his face.

>Thus covered, a cocoon, swaddled in anorak, he strode away across the street. Again he tried to bluff that nothing had happened. But the world was already different. The game of hide-and-seek was done. The inevitable had occurred. I loafed after him across the intersection, unsure if I should consider myself iconographer or iconoclast.

>My paparazzi instincts had betrayed me. I got no shots of Pynchon's flight as a professional shutterbug would have done. Yet that single click of my plastic camera trapped the first known image of Pynchon's face for more than 40 years. What would his reaction be? Would he have a comment canned, ready to be served?

>Pynchon was agitated. He looked forlorn. For a flash, I recalled the expression on the faces of peasant women in poor counties when a tourist from a richer land snaps their portrait to take back home. I extended my hand to placate him, a gesture of reassurance.

Here's me when I dressed up as the tin man from the Wizard of Oz for Halloween one year! I didn't have any metal (sold it all as scrap to afford more reefer!) so I improvised like the genius I am and used my curtains! HAHA!

When he was on set for Inherent Vice his publisher who I know asked me to get weed and so I think I sold Pynchon weed once, the whole time he kept saying 'whacky tobacc-ee' and kept saying 'huh?' mid-sentence as if i interrupted him then continued talking agitatedly. Then before he left he kept telling me to 'fuck right off' but it was like he was planning to say it the whole time but realized on his leaving that he hadn't. His dollar bills were crumpled and had all these symbol and latin quotes written on them

I saw Thomas Pynchon in a grocery store in Los Angeles yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn't want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything.
He said, "Oh, like you're doing now?"
I was taken aback, and all I could say was "Huh?" but he kept cutting me off and going "huh? huh? huh?" and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw Pynchon trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying.
The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like "Sir, you need to pay for those first." At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.

When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually "to prevent any electrical infetterence," and then turned around and winked at me. I don't even think that's a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.
