I had no idea who this person was until this morning's news. Stupid history classes thinking nothing worth mentioning happened after D-Day.

Yeah what is with that. History class was on some kind of repeat loop between colonization and world war II until college.

An even better story about the youth of America not giving a fuck about people who baby boomers think are famous:

The article makes it sound like he was a victim of racial profiling.

I know of Bob Dylan and like his music, but I wouldn't believe some wandering 68 year old man if he said "im bob dylan"

This is the second story I've read recently about Bob Dylan just out doing something in public all by himself.  Apparently when in Liverpool a few months ago he took a tour of Places of significance in John Lennon's life.  Just got on the bus with everyone else on a public tour.

Sure if it was out of nowhere, but still - I wouldn't cross the street to see Bob Dylan, but I think I'd be aware if a no doubt hugely promoted concert was in town and I am pretty sure that in that case I'd recognize him and put two and two together.

Anyway, don't spoil it for it for me. I am loving the idea that 24 year olds don't know or care who he is. The past is the past, people who can't stop talking about the 40th anniversary of Woodstock. Who gives a fuck?

ALSO: if the Manson trials happened today, don't you think that some reality producer would try the extreme makeover thing on the ladies there if they were out on bail until trial or whatever?

"A little foundation, a push-up bra... there... no one would EVER think you killed a lady because a dude who used to hang out with the Beach Boys told you that the ghost of a ***** wanted you to do it!"

Honestly, no matter where he was wandering around, I think it would be easy to mistake Bob Dylan for a crazy homeless person. C'mon, look at this one:

I've never been huge on Dylan and even after seeing those photos probably wouldn't recognise him on the street.

I'd run through traffic if I thought I spotted Leonard Cohen though so, y'know, different strokes.

Get off of Ash's lawn!

Come on, this is pretty funny on both sides. You know those cops have got some friends and relatives and co-workers who are never going to let them hear the end of this, for the rest of their lives and careers.

PS: Bob Dylan is recording a CHRISTMAS album.
