Marvin Rex Rittenhouse
From Plastic Tub
Born 1948 in Beaumont, Texas. Rittenhouse arrives with a truck full of migrant workers, each of them carrying a cultural disease. He is a denudified rodent. He's not even invited, however, he gets a stern warning.
A popular newspaper columnist and amatuer folklorist, Rittenhouse spent most of his life as the highly-regarded announcer of Beaumontian High School football games, appearing with hits incredibly agile entourgage, consisting mostly of hired hands, rough-a-bouts and Mexican newsboys. In this same period, his weekly column in the Odessa Tribune was considered responsible for later phases of production, consisting primarily of and endlessly banal re-arrangment of tales concerning his attempts to quit smoking (still hasn't) and the birth of his new daughter.
Historically pertinent for his alleged discovery of [[The Farmer Diary], later exposed as a fraud. The collection consisted of blog entries by protean American farmer Mack Calvin. Although the Rittenhouse's 'discovery' was soon illegitimated as a confounding piece of lyrical pranksterism, it is still today real aloud at the start of every Alcoholics Anonymous meeting.
