Man...you guys! I AM BACK, OKAY??? I was too darned tired and busy on Thursday and Friday to get on the Mudcat. Why? Well, there was a backlog of business to clear away here in Orillia...and I have just spent 3 weeks in an Ashram getting up at 5 AM every day for meditation, yoga, chanting, garden work, discussion group, more meditation, choir instruction (for the little Trini kids...a wonderful bunch of dark-eyed angels), listening to a couple of thousand local dogs holler and howl to each other all night long (it grows on you after awhile)...oh, and roosters crowing from about 11 PM till dawn the next day...

It was great!

I do not have time right now to read this whole silly thread, but I have read the first few postings.

1. The one about the Dylanologist is marvelous, alanabit! Alas, it is not true, however. I must add that "Blonde on Blonde" is spelled with a final "e" on each Blonde. Very crucial!

2. Spaw...BETTER MINE THAN YOURS!!!

I have, as I say, only read the first 5 or 6 posts. I am about to go downtown and have a nice quiet late lunch at La Mezzaluna on Mississaga Street in Orillia. I'll be back later.

In the meantime...carry on without me. :-)
