Damn.

Well put.

I was hoping it wasn't too cryptic. If it was a poem I had to hand set for letterpressing, I'd stick with that one word.

Saw a recent photo of Suzi and she was -- of course -- old and wrinkled. Sad what life does to us. In that photo on the album cover, they look so young, full of life. I bought that album when it was new, too many years ago.

I just heard that Suze was a book artist and was a member of the bookarts list that I am a member of.

I heard an interview with her on NPR today, from 4 years ago. She seemed like a classy lady who did her own thing.

She seemed to give as much to Dylan as he gave to her. She was certainly not a groupie.

I'm finally getting around to reading her book, A Freewheelin Time: Greenwich Village in the Sixites. I was hoping for something it fails to deliver, but it's a pleasant enough read.

I'm wondering how Bob feels?
This is sad news. Funny how many people know who she is and nothing at all about her. And I mean that in a good way. Her smile in this shot is mint.
