Dylan's prize

Pulitzer Prize for Bob Dylan for his lyrics.

I am old enough to remember when Mr Zimmerman would have told them what to do with it and the whole business (and I mean business) will amuse many of us.

Interesting thought for any members of the grey community out there. Would you accept a huge accolade in your field?

Apart from the greenbacks involved, are these prizes worth anything in later life? It's not as though he needs his profile raising like someone just starting out. Just think of the new movie - that's Cate Blanchett as the speeding Bob pictured here, by the way.
