#3 There's a "Bob Dylan" web page with the lyrics.

Offical? Idano, but it has this: Copyright Â© 1965; renewed 1993 Special Rider Music and the Colombia logo.

#6 PD, once again, provides the kind of vital information that keeps me coming back to Rantburg. Now I won't be able to sleep until I find out what his favorite color is.

#7 Ms Omi - Deep. As in over your head, apparently. BTW, it's situationally. 2 l's. Thanx for your input.

Anonymous - It's a joy to have the brave troll Anon with us, again. Don't worry, the link wasn't meant for your edification. Your posts bring to mind a statement from The Deteriorata, also a piece too far, in your case. To wit: "Be assured that a walk through the ocean of most souls would scarcely get your feet wet." That's you, *dude* - to borrow one of Aris' idioms.

#8 PD whoever the hell you are...
Thanks phor the correction. My misspellings aren't cutting and sophisticated like yours.
Your comments on anonymity are rather amusing, but I guess you "Don't think twice..."
If you want to continue a flame war you can respond to the e-mail address at my site and stop wasting the Rantburgers time. I apologize for doing the same and won't repeat the mistake... set up a hotmail account PD.

#9 Flame war? Wha? The point of the post is that the lyrics are spot-on regards human behavior - almost 40 years on. It was posted in the Short Attention Span Theater (i.e. of momentary interest, semi-frivolous). It was a mere public service. You stepped on your dick. I was kind. Your skin is far too thin.

Tsk, tsk to you and Anonymous for your inability to appreciate Mr Dylan's efforts (the donut) and, instead, pretend to be Blog Studs (the hole) posting about me. There's only ONE Blog Stud in Rantburg, boys, and that's ~~Aris~~ Sheriff Fred.

Sheesh. And I thought the art you've put on your website was pretty good stuff, too...

Folks, you are witnessing the evolution of the English language right smack dab before your eyes. Think about going up to someone and saying "peshawar" while they are rambling on about nothing.
