Yeah, that's why I don't smoke. It's downright dangerous lighting up anything when you're living on the same continent as Spaw! The possibility of perishing in a gigantic putrescent fireball has always given me pause...

Spaw - actually, Psycho has had no effect on my life, as far as I know, cos I've never seen it. I am aware that as a movie it was a sort of a watershed, so that's why I listed it. What does the reference about "Mom" mean? I don't get that.

Catrin - you are absolutely right. NO ONE, AND I MEAN NO ONE IN MUSIC HAS LEFT SO POWERFUL A MARK ON HIS TIMES AS BOB DYLAN...in both music and lyrics, and really every which way you can mention.

Bob is the One And Only.

I thought it was so darn obvious, that I just didn't bother to say it earlier.

Here's are some others who did by way of the movies: Charlie Chaplin, and in his own really weird way, Woody Allen...and Peter Sellers, for sure.

And then there's Enrico Caruso (lauded by Joan in her own song "Voices of Great Caruso").
