It is very Conrad. And I'm from E. Tx so don't want to hear any C**p about that line. Just occured is It Faulkner???

The "alimentary canal" line is a joke line that I remembered. Neither Faulkner nor Hemingway would have had anything to do with that line. And I agree that Iowa's style in this one is mostly Conrad, though he can disabuse me if I'm wrong.
