HA!!!!!!!!! about I know you from the T.V., the way he said it, (btw,
this is a little different than the story with Al Gore and Conan on
the computer when it happened,

Yes. It IS different, and I've been trying to remember the original
story.
If you do, I'd love to hear it.

I don't quite remember what John said,

John imitated Bob saying he wished some movie hadn't had to have ended
the way it did, but he
knew it did. It was a pretty good imitation. Funny too. I liked what
John had to say about sometimes feeling like he was in a petting zoo.
There it is. Can I touch it? Does it talk? Hilarious and heartfelt as
well.

Conan had me laughing too about wearing a Conan O'brien mask.
Actually, that's the only way he
might not be recognized -- with his height and hair and all. People
wouldn't think he would wear a mask of himself. Well, now they would..

Hi. :)

Right, thanks for the retell. (ring them bells, the way the movie
ended, sure, now I sorta remember)

Ok, the story about Conan (AS BEST AS I REMEMBER, DON'T HOLD ME TO IT)
is like Bob saw Conan coming at him, this was backstage at MSG or
something, and like Conan was trying to get Bob's attention, and Bob
Dylan was like, "Oh G-d no, get me away from this loser" and Bob saw
Al Gore, and so it was like, Hey Al, and let's totally get away from
this Conan dork, and they did. It put Conan in a really bad light.

I'll never forget Conan's first show. You know, like, OMG, who is
going to replace Dave Letterman? What's he gonna do?

The monologue was terrific.

Now, I am not one to laugh at other people's looks, or things like
that, I mean it, I knew this was SO BAD, and also, like, sure, I
noticed it, but it never made any difference to me, I didn't care, I
liked him anyway, but Conan made this joke about going to the NBC
store to try on the Jay Leno strap on chin. I couldn't believe he said
that. I don't remember if I was laughing out loud or not. But it was
hysterical.

I didn't like Jay Leno making fun of Bob Dylan after the grammies,
what was with Dylan, and then imitating the guilt gut. That's what
it's called, supposedly, when that happens, I learned from this T.V.
show 7th Heaven. The way the air comes up from your stomach, it's
guilt.

I figured, later, it was Bob Dylan being guilty about using me to
write these songs that he waited three years to write after we met,
and had nothing else to write about, and he didn't really mean it, or
it was too good material to pass up, so he was guilty about that.

At the time, I just figured it was about me, and I was about as
miserable as Bob, and I didn't care, and he was burping on T.V., and I
didn't care about that either, all I wanted was to be with him, and it
wasn't happening, so there wasn't much to care about in life. I was in
my new apt. in West L.A.. It was no big deal. Nothing really mattered.
