Hi Edie!
I live for Wednesdays! One of the advantages of my job is I'm out in the field most days. My kids got me XM radio for Father's day three years ago and Laura told me about the show right after it came on for the first time. So I'm able to drive around all day and listen to it and love it. Sometimes several times over. (Wow, what a crack up! It's starting right now on walrus Radio!) I think it's my favorite thing on the radio. I don't have a favorite show though because they're all different.
Great topic!

Hi Jim! Other than Walrus, you're the 2nd person on the face of the Earth who I know listens and loves Theme Time. I recently had a review published in my local paper (DemocratandChronicle.com). Until I found it here, I was dying every week that I was missing it--trying to sign up for the on-line XM free trial, but that didn't work out for mechanical reasons. After that I lost the faith about subscribing. So getting it twice daily here is GOLD for me, as I bow to the big man on campus, Walrus.  I cannot believe some of the fantastic songs that are played--all I can say--I dance a lot because they are so enlivening. One comment from the show I read on the web that Dylan made was: "Camels can go a long time without water, but they want to see a menu right away!"
Thanks for responding.

My absolutley favorite quote:
"The harmonica is the world's best selling musical instrument. You're welcome."

Back Pages is playing now--I LOVE that young voice! But I digress, Jim. So the harmonica isn't the world's best-selling instrument? Why not?

No, the harmonica IS the worlds best selling instrument!
The cat is:
Felix the cat
The wonderful, wonderful cat
Whenever he gets in a fix
He reaches into his bag of tricks
Felix the cat
The wonderful, wonderful cat
You'll laugh so much your sides will ache
Your heart will go pit-a-pat
Watching Felix the wonderful cat

I wasn't in the mood to fight with the shout box re getting axed my first try, so here I am. I wanted to give a hurray for Judy Collin's cover of "Daddy....On My Mind"; the emotion is there, the guitar is fantastic, if the voice is a tad piercing.
I'd love to hear comments on Dylan sayig in his "You've Got to Serve Somebody"--"you can call me Bobby or you can call me Zimmy..." Is it his sense of humor coming through? His warm side? For a change he's giving me something to think about.
And remember: Walrus said we don't have to stay on topic.

I walked out of the room during Theme Time tonight; was it Dylan's son who was applauding his dad? Jakob maybe? Anyone?

On 2nd thought, Dylan would never let his kid come on and applaud him! These brain schisms must stop!

I almost hate to devluge this, but I read that the emails on Theme Time are fake! Now would that really surprise us that Bobby was playin' with our heads?

Just re-read your post about the harmonica, Jim, and I remembered that my brother, Bob (deceased) used to play a harmonica in his teens and it would inspire our dog, Whitie (Collie-Spitz), to start wailing with his snout in a vertical position. Did we ever get a kick out of that.
Does anyone else think Dylan may have been pals with Tiny Tim? Tiny Tim sure seemed to be mimic ing Bob, that's my impression anyways. And didn't Tiny even put on white face like the Master? I'm sure Bob was no stranger to weirdness. [/b][/i]

Thanks a heap Jim! All my suspicians confirmed! Fascinating info! So there was a club in the Village called Cafe Bizarre.  (I think that was the name.) And Tiny Tim's dress described as "haute-coutoure bum." Funny. But it seems Dylan got the white face from T.T. and not the other way around. 
Thanks again! Have a good week![/b]

I was just thinkin (fair warning): If Dylan never did another thing, Theme Time would be the icing on a forever cake--another timeless accomplishment!
