Funny story.  Hadn't heard this one before.

They should have entitled this, "Bob Dylan's Urinating Elvis-- Or The Case Of The $750,000 Sofa."

Here's an alternate web page where the photo links work.

Thank you so much. Now I seem to have double links, but I'm ok with that...

Yes, I think we might all be surprised at the extent of Dylans antics.  In addition to having a really weird sense of humor, he seems to have done some pretty outrageous things that most of us couldn't get away with.  But that is charm, I guess...

Ha ha.  They could have, but it wouldn't have been politically correct...

If all the Masonic references in MMF are an indication that Dylan has actually been a Mason himself, or the narrator represents a Mason, could we then view the song as bragging that the Masons were behind the assassination?  Also, the Masons would probably be the only ones to get the implied joke? Hmmmmm....

For anyone who hasn't yet viewed the Stanley Marks page on this forum, "Murder Most Foul! The Conspiracy That Murdered President Kennedy" is now back in print for the first time since 1967:

Is another one of Dylan's R+RW alluding to the Warren Commission Report?

Saw him one time in the early 80s in a couple thousand seat theater in Charleston, WV during the Slow Train Coming tour. Didn’t play a single old song.
