In Other News...

Just a random little something for your entertainment. The sweetheart of Duluth has run into some trouble--or at least trouble has been forced upon him. Bob Dylan was picked up by some cops in New Jersey. Apparently, he looked like a suspicious figure because he was looking into the windows of houses for sale and wearing a hood (he was in the rain). He told the cops who he was, but they didn't realize it was THE Bob Dylan.

"'She recognized the name, she just really didn’t believe it was Bob Dylan,” Ahart told CNN. “He was soaking wet because it was raining and he was wearing a hood.'" Apparently New Jersey cops have been taught that celebrities are impervious to the rain.

Here's a link to Rolling Stone's take on it:

Now let's all listen to Subterranean Homesick Blues and think of the [Modern] Bard.
