I understand that as he approaches his 70s Bob Dylan has taken to using a walking stick. This surprises me. I always had him down for a zimmer man.

Everyone relax. Sit back with your glass of whatever in hand and think back to the first time you heard Dylan.

I was doing some lawn care and had a little red transistor radio turned on when I first heard "Times are a Changing". I have to honestly say that I also changed after hearing that song. I was listening to Johnny Horton, Jim Reeves, Hank Williams, Sonny James and all the great Country singers of that era. But Dylan woke me up.
I listen to him now and can't help think of what he sounded like back then. Thanks Bob. You never could sing but it was great just the same. As a poet you are number one, and as a world diplomat you are a plus XXXXX.

I didnt go much on M c's cover of B D's Dream.

Maybe he has had other things to be concerned about lately.

he has had his 3 score and ten, he should be quietly allowed to pass on.

Being just about 5 months younger than Ol' Bob, I take grave (not literally, I hope) exception to that suggestion.
