Dylan: May 2008 Archives
David Allen, columnist for our sister paper and blogger in his own write at the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin, writes an appreciation of sorts for Bob Dylan's XM radio show "Theme Time Radio Hour."

Have to admit, that when I can listen to it, Dylan's show is absolutely my favorite. It's introduced me to some cool music (Shorty Long's original version of Devil with the Blue Dress and the Yayhoos' "Bottle and a Bible" for example).
Here's an excerpt from Allen's piece:
Happy birthday to Dylan, who turned 67 on Saturday. Some of his jokes are even older than that. Personally, I think they're a scream, but even if most of you disagree, I expect Ontario politicos Paul Leon and Gary Ovitt will be repeating them for years.
"I got a friend who's learning to become a ballerina. She's improving by leaps and bounds."
"Getting married's a lot like getting into a tub of hot water. After you get used to it, it ain't so hot."
"I once had a cross-eyed teacher who couldn't control his pupils."
"You know, I sleep at the edge of the bed. It doesn't take long for me to drop off."
"Two dogs talking. One says to the other: `You're crazy. You ought to go see a psychiatrist.' The other dog says: `I'd love to, but I'm not allowed on the couch."'
"I was having dinner with our announcer, Pierre Mancini. The only difference between Pierre Mancini and a canoe is that sometimes a canoe will tip."
Oh, here's some great Dylan lyrics.
