You know that thing where people see faces in stuff, like Jesus in muffins or shit like that?

Scientifically, its called Pareidolia.

I wonder whether you have examples you'd like to share of seeing Bob Dylan in random objects?

Here's one to kick off with, which might actually be Bob Dylan for all I know:

The King & Queen of Norway recently visited Duluth: http://www.northlandsnewscenter.com/you ... 12813.html

Now, here's a photo I have been sent (my source remains secret) of some well wishers during this visit:

Click on it and then tell me who the guy in the white cap looks suspiciously like.

I'm going to say George Bush Sr. also...

Bennyboy - if you are suggesting that that looks like Dylan... I think you need to seek help immediately. :)

Near where I live, there is a doddery old woman who, from a distance, looks very, very like Bob.

I see her often on her way back from the shops... slowly pulling her tartan shopping trolley behind her... and I am always amazed and shocked at just how much she resembles Dylan.

There are a couple of holes in this...... first the date (October 17) if that is Bob, who is on tour???? :?

Next..... Bob would not have been wearing those very un-cool type glasses :roll:

Third.... Where is the hoodie? No way, he would have been there if he didn't have a hoodie :lol:

and lastly..... he has dined with kings and never been to impressed..... he would not have bother with this one either. :P

But he does have cousins....... :wink:

This is actually a very interesting observation on your part thickone...... so tell me, does the sight of her give you little rushes..... you know like so many of the erotical ladies of ER get when we see our Bob???? I really hope so, it would be nice to know that you get to experience the same rush of excitement that we ladies do..... It only happens for us when we see Bob or get a nice poem or acknowledgement from you on line.... :wink:

It looks more like Bobby Charlton to me, the cap merely hiding his shiny pate.

Was gonna start a separate thread about this in Bob Dylan General Discussion, but probably not enough general interest to warrant it...but it is a thing I just wanna say.

Anybody catch this bit of dialogue on The Mindy Project last night? Mindy & Danny are planning the office Christmas party.

Mindy: You could do the party playlist.

Danny: No, never again. I did that once, and I didn't put enough Rihanna songs on it, and I'm party Hitler all of a sudden.

Mindy: To be clear, there was no Rihanna on it. It was simply three hours of listening to...Jakob Dylan's dad?

Danny: Bob Dylan!

Mindy: Okay...cool.

Well, at least I was amused.

I forgot about that thread! That woulda been the place for it.


if only...'tis the season for wishes to come true!

that joke was perfectly placed and passed over by the way.. I want to write that actor now to find out if he or the writer is a Dylan fan....
