Seinfeld and Dylan...been on my mind

One of my all time favorite scenes from Seinfeld.  Been thinking about this show lately.  About how we're all connected and how all the events of our lives seem to effect others.  This show captured that perfectly I think.  This clip doesn't necessarily reflect that, but it's still one of my favorites.

(Click "Play" and then click on the "Watch on YouTube" link...it wouldn't embed, but you can still watch.  It will open in a new window.  Hilarious stuff!)



And finally these lyrics from Bob Dylan's "Blowin in the Wind".  They've just been on my mind, and they speak to so much going on in our world. 

How many roads most a man walk down
Before you call him a man ?
How many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand ?
Yes, how many times must the cannon balls fly
Before they're forever banned ?
The answer my friend is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

Yes, how many years can a mountain exist
Before it's washed to the sea ?
Yes, how many years can some people exist
Before they're allowed to be free ?
Yes, how many times can a man turn his head
Pretending he just doesn't see ?
The answer my friend is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

Yes, how many times must a man look up
Before he can see the sky ?
Yes, how many ears must one man have
Before he can hear people cry ?
Yes, how many deaths will it take till he knows
That too many people have died ?
The answer my friend is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind.


-Blowin' in the Wind, Dylan
