Don't you know who I am?

Maybe Dr. Gates can take a lesson in humiliation after this story........

For example, 68-year old Bob Dylan, in rolling stone fashion, was innocently walking alone in a Long Branch, New Jersey, neighborhood recently. A 20-something police officer thought this was odd, and pulled over to question the suspect. No ID. Support was called in. Neither of the two officers recognized the American icon. Indeed, they apparently had never even heard of Bob Dylan — and so put him in the first squad car to take him back to his hotel to verify whether he was really an entertainer of some sort.

When his story checked out, the officers released him and left. A city official said of Dylan, "He couldn't have been any nicer to them." Apparently there were no Dylan rants about whom the police were "messin'" with, no reference to their mothers, no mayoral or gubernatorial editorial, no presidential sermon on police acting stupidly by profiling and putting a man in a police car for simply walking the street.

Trust me. If these cops lived with the Lovely Mrs. Gekko they'd know who Robert Zimmerman is.
