'''They emerge into the open, high up near a catwalk...suitable for teen adventures, clandestine lovers, well-heeled wrongdoers on the run, and take this vertiginous crossover...'''<br />
Once again, there's no telling if Pynchon had Hitchcock's [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z5jvQwwHQNY Vertigo] in mind when he wrote "Bleeding Edge," but it sure is easy to get the two works into a casual conversation.


'''I've got their album'''<br/>
Is she talking about the band Men at Work?

It's quite possible. The lines that provoke Maxine's comment are: "Look sharp," March ducking behind a vent. "Some gents with metal accessories."

Or, just the fact that to Maxine it looks more like a band setting up to play on the roof than it does the Stingers they saw in the video.

'''''Yozhik v Tumane'''''<br />
Real short film. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lCsJZV7aCdY YouTube.] More info at [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hedgehog_in_the_Fog Wiki] where you can learn, among other things, that the title means "hedgehog in the fog."

'''what Flintstones call page right out of history'''<br/>
Lyrics to the theme song of the cartoon ''The Flintstones'': 
<blockquote>Flintstones. Meet the Flintstones.<br/>
They're the modern stone age family.<br/>
From the town of Bedrock,<br/>
They're a page right out of history.<br/>
</blockquote>
