What....No Beers at The White House?

An intersting story came to light this past weekend when it was revealed that eccentric rocker Bob Dylan was picked up and briefly detained by police in Long Branch New Jersey after they received a call that a strange looking man was wandering around the neighborhood in the rain. When the 24 year old police officer arrived and asked for ID he claimed that he had none but told her he was Bob Dylan. Since the officer obviously did not recognize him she told him to get in the car and she drove him to his hotel where ID was presented and he was released.
Interesting...rather than scream and make a scene he did what the officer told him and the situation was quickly resolved. The police were not foolishly accused of acting "stupidly" by the President, this wasn't put forth as a "teachable" moment for America and nobody got invited to the White House for a few beers. Nothing more than a 68 year old former legend being treated like a complete unknown....like a rolling stone....and that's what shim sez...
