Route
Playboy Magazine: Mistake or not, what made you decide to go the rock-'n'-roll route?
Bob Dylan: Carelessness. I lost my one true love. I started drinking. The first thing I know, I'm in a card game. Then I'm in a crap game. I wake up in a pool hall. Then this big Mexican lady drags me off the table, takes me to Philadelphia. She leaves me alone in her house, and it burns down. I wind up in Phoenix. I get a job as a Chinaman. I start working in a dime store, and move in with a 13-year-old girl. Then this big Mexican lady from Philadelphia comes in and burns the house down. I go down to Dallas. I get a job as a "before" in a Charles Atlas "before and after" ad. I move in with a delivery boy who can cook fantastic chili and hot dogs. Then this 13-year-old girl from Phoenix comes and burns the house down. The delivery boy - he ain't so mild: He gives her the knife, and the next thing I know I'm in Omaha. It's so cold there, by this time I'm robbing my own bicycles and frying my own fish. I stumble onto some luck and get a job as a carburetor out at the hot-rod races every Thursday night. I move in with a high school teacher who also does a little plumbing on the side, who ain't much to look at, but who's built a special kind of refrigerator that can turn newspaper into lettuce. Everything's going good until that delivery boy shows up and tries to knife me. Needless to say, he burned the house down, and I hit the road. The first guy that picked me up asked me if I wanted to be a star. What could I say?
Playboy Magazine: And that's how you became a rock-'n'-roll singer?
Bob Dylan: No, that's how I got tuberculosis.

hitRECord & Tumblr
Please welcome to tumblr my friend Joe!
Joe and I and Jared and Ronen and Luke have been working for this last year on something really special and we are getting very close to making it public. It’s actually part of the reason I haven’t been posting much original content on my tumblr, as a lot of the projects I’ve been working on recently (like this one) are being held close...

It is hard to take pictures in a world so abundant...
My friend Ronen once said that he sometimes gets the feeling I understand him, and sometimes gets the feeling I think he’s crazy. They both are true, and yet this post below goes a long way to helping the former… (and, actually, the latter too :)
Anyway, it’s a beautiful expression of intentional wonder that I begin to understand and that is crazy in the best way.
