    Hey Marilyn.
    Thank you for your kind, encouraging, and positive comments. My son me the Tee. I am not sure where he got it. He said it was "perfect" for me. I have purchased tee shirt transfers I can print in my printer. HAHAHA. I plan to start making my own tee shirts. I have published several of my epigrams and have a few I will put on tees. I won't sell any, I will just wear them. 😁

Hello Robert,
once again, I've come away from a post having learned something new. I had no idea Bob Dylan's name was Robert Zimmerman. My friend, Buffalo Bob was a huge fan of Dylan. I'll have to let him know this little tidbit. One of his grandsons is named Dylan. Thanks for sharing this.
Blessings,
Tom

    Hey Tom.
    Thank you very much for your review and particularly for your personal comments. I am working on a writer website, and I plan to name it, "I'm not Dylan." I have been asked by some messages I have received if I am him. That makes me laugh.

I have read a few of this imaginary party pieces but your version is funniest and easiest to read. I like your monogram "I Laugh at My Own Jokes" and you reached the conclusion in the end to make it a perfect ending.

Excellent.

LOL! Guess that sounds about like my account would have, sir -- pretty sure most folks wouldn't know who I was either (and I don't have a good name excuse like you do -- lol!)... A fun little recount here - and good luck selling the tux!! ;) :) ;) Yvette

    Thanks Yvette.
    Thanks for the great comments. If I don't sell the tux, Ralph the dog can sleep on it. He is always in my chair sleeping. My name excuse comes in handy. 😁

Sometimes it's better to just sign the autograph than to explain the mixup. My father-in-law went to Japan for his job and everyone thought he was George Cobern. He politely posed for pictures and signed autographs. When in Rome... I enjoyed this! Gretchen

    I understand that. People who asked me if I was the "real" Robert Zimmerman were disappointed with my answer. I am the real one, just not that one. I am pleased you enjoyed my "journal." Everyone else effectively summarized the party, I just wanted to clear up the appearance of Mr. Dylan. 😁

That's right - your name is Bob Dylan's real name! I didn't really think about it until you mentioned it. How fun to put on a Dylan mask and to re-introduce yourself this way!

    Thanks, Helen.
    Everyone already described what was happening at the party. This was easier than restating what everyone else said. Bob Dylan didn't stay long.😁

I like your artwork and story to go with it, as well as your notes. A very good opening hook. Very good descriptive detail about your tux. You did a good responding to being jostled for a second time. I like your decision to get the Bob Dylan mask.

Good reactions when you walked back into the ballroom. A very good ending, as well.

    Hi Pam.
    Thank you for your great comments. I appreciate your complimentary words. I probably won't be invited to the next shindig. 😁

Rapid Robert, my man, you were all decked out, "stylin' and profilin'" I think they call it, and I can picture you as the master of ceremonies. Thanks for sharing.

I very much enjoyed your version of attending the convention and I got a kick out of your explanation about being the reels Robert Zimmerman. I am the one that likes to tell a good joke too and sometimes I even laugh at my own jokes. May you have a wonderful day and may God bless your weekend.
