Kingston Crossroads: Re: 61 Years Ago ... Back To The Future -- CAUTION: sarcastic humor

Yes Ken - a fabulous line it was.

And it didn't stop there.

I loved the final verse in "Talkin' World War III Blues" :

Well, now time passed and now it seems
Everybody's havin' them dreams
Everybody sees themself
Walking around with no one else
Half of the people can be part right all of the time
And some of the people can be all right part of the time
But all of the people can't be all right all of the time
I think Abraham Lincoln said that

I'll let you be in my dreams if I can be in yours

I said that

- Bob Dylan

Larry, I loved that song too, and you gotta love lyrics like these:

Well, the whole thing started at 3 o’clock fast
It was all over by quarter past
I was down in the sewer with some little lover
When I peeked out from a manhole cover
Wondering who turned the lights on

Nothing to forgive, Ken. Thanks for sharing.

Great photo, by the way. (Oval Office - March 5, 2026)

For the record (pardon the pun), on Bob Dylan's first album (1962) - "In My Time of Dyin" was the only track I kept going back to.

[Bob Dylan's "Song To Woody" would probably be my second]

Remember this one: from Bob Dylan's second album - "Freewheelin" ?

Evangelical leaders lay hands on Prez Donnie, while praying for success in the Iranian War, and perhaps for the hastening of the End Times and Armageddon? I think I have a problem, though, as being raised a typical Christian--I go to church three to four times a year--I don't think I qualify to Rapture on outta here for a retirement plan that's outta this world; I'll have to endure all the subsequent good and bad rigamarole before going to that big machine shop in the sky.

Please, if I've offended anyone, can you find it in your heart to forgive me?

In My Time of Dyin’
Traditional: Bob Dylan arrangement

Well, in my time of dying don't want nobody to mourn

All I want for you to do is take my body home

Well, well, well, so I can die easy

Well, well, well

Well, well, well, so I can die easy

Jesus gonna make up, Jesus gonna make up

Jesus gonna make up my dying bed

Well, meet me Jesus, meet me, meet me

in the middle of the air

If these wings should fail to me

Lord, won't you meet me with another pair

Well, well, well, so I can die easy

Well, well, well

Well, well, well, so I can die easy

Jesus gonna make up, Jesus gonna make up

Jesus gonna make up my dying bed

Lord, in my time of dying don't want nobody to cry

All I want you to do is take me when I die

Well, well, well, so I can die easy

Well, well, well

Well, well, well, so I can die easy

Jesus gonna make up, Jesus gonna make up

Jesus gonna make up my dying bed

Poor Liddle General Bonespurs, his good buddy, Vladimir Putin, is helping Iran by feeding that nation intelligence on American military positions. Donnie, time to give Vlad a call on the red phone and straighten him out! Too bad, though, for poor Donnie, both Netanyahu and Putin have kompromat on him and this has put American military personnel, Americans at home and abroad, and the world in danger.
