How does it fee-eel…

  1. Like a rolling stone…
    That’s strange, I dreamt last night I was arranging records and couldn’t decide where to put Bob Dylan. I had no idea about the International Talk Like Bob Dylan day until I saw the link when posting this!!!!!

    The times they are a changin’.

    1. Or gathering moss …
      Rick, are you saying this was a coincidence? Or could it be that you did ‘know’ but hadn’t taken it in consciously? We only actually remember a tiny fraction of the data we sense. And if I’ve got our awareness right, over the next couple of days you could be assaulted by Dylan reminders.
      But if that happens, was it a coincidence, or did you, or I, pre-ordain it?
      Bet it won’t happen now and I’ll look a fool.

      I’m certain of only one thing. Nothing is certain.

      1. A wildcat did growl…
        Nope, I had no idea, not a clue. The only thing I can think of is Bob Dylan was mentioned at a wedding last Saturday night. I was teasing a friend’s father about an incident a couple of years ago when, in a drunken impulse, he jumped onto a table and made a drunken incomprehensible rant about Bob Dylan. No mention of International Talk Like Bob Dylan Day at all though. And it would make more sense for me to have had the dream that night, not a few days later on the eve of ITLBDD.

        Curioser and curioser…

    2. Oh I misread that
      At first I thought it was “intentional talk like bob dylan” day, which would be even more scary

  2. MSNBC didn’t get all of them…
    If they read my Perth fireballs spin I’m sure it would get an honorable mention in their urban legends list. Its a shame I can’t forward it to the folks who put that list together. Some of the stuff they list is downright boring, how could some of that stuff generate a life of its own is beyond me. It must be a conspiracy of marmite haters.

  3. Web hoaxes
    I love them.No I haven’t been caught by any but I am always surprised by people who are caught by the Nigerian scam.

    The Masonic murder mystery seems to me to be a suicide.But what would I know.

    Love the quote.
