ITT: Your face when you realized that Thomas Pynchon has probably smoked more weed than all of you put together.

Many years later, I ran into her at a literature conference and she revealed some unexpected details about herself and Pynchon. They weren't just friends; they had been lovers and lived together in Berkeley for a while in 1965. She described him as being then a "prematurely middleaged" young man with "a lot of hang-ups." She claimed she was the first to turn him on to dope. They broke up because of the "hang-ups," but they remained friends and corresponded. From time to time, he would reappear suddenly and unexpectedly in her life--the last time at her wedding, with a wedding present of a kilo of Michoacan (a superior brand of Mexican killer weed).

Apparently. It's not really surprising, if you read his work.

I wouldn't be shocked to find out he did a whole lot more.
