The Broom of the System

I'm halfway through this extremely odd and sometimes (at least for this gal) difficult to follow book by David Foster Wallace. The one scene with Norman Bombardini at the restaurant, though? Oh my gosh, I was honest-to-God howling with laughter when he said to the waiter, "I could blugeon you with my belly." Bishop loaned me his copy of the book, but I scored the audiobook version from the library and it's read by Robert Petkoff, who does a simply phenomenal job. I'm gonna try to tackle Infinite Jest at some point; I just need the time and the brain power to give it a go.
