You may have trouble believing this next sentence, but as far as I can tell I don't think the Seattle Times is kidding on reporting it:  Bob Dylan is going to release a Christmas album on October 13.  Apparently profits go to the world food bank or something like that.  Oh, BObby.  By the way, don't want to make you insanely and violently jealous, but Bob is in town Monday night to start his tour of the West Coast.  Should be beautiful, man. Nobody fucks with Bobby. You said it man. 
 
Be well, paint, scream, laugh, sing, read, stretch, close your eyes to feel your breath, watch youtube videos of Bono with a drink late at night. 

Good karma and will from Seattle.
