Me and Bob at Al's diner

People are always asking me if I know Bob Dylan, seeing as we’re the same age and both of us were at the University of Minnesota at the same time, and I’ve always said no, not wanting to get into the whole complicated story or claim any credit for his career. Dylan is a hard-working guy who deserves his entire $500 million fortune and the fact he never gave me credit for his name and never paid me back the ten bucks I gave him in 1960 at Al’s Breakfast diner is neither here nor there. He was sitting next to me, guitar on his back, eating two eggs over easy on hash browns with three strips of bacon and he said, “Hey, man, you got a ten on you? I left my billfold in my car and my girlfriend Elaine borrowed it to go pick up my suit at the cleaners. Soon as she returns, I’ll pay you back.”
