Great for him! I think it was well deserved. He has written a lot of good stuff over the years.
NEW YORK - Thanks to Bob Dylan, rock ’n roll has finally broken through the Pulitzer wall.
Dylan, the most acclaimed and influential songwriter of the past half century, who more than anyone brought rock from the streets to the lecture hall, received an honorary Pulitzer Prize on Monday, cited for his “profound impact on popular music and American culture, marked by lyrical compositions of extraordinary poetic power.”
It was the first time Pulitzer judges, who have long favored classical music, and, more recently, jazz, awarded an art form once dismissed as barbaric, even subversive.

The Law of Gravity is nonsense. No such law exists. If I think I float, and you think I float, then it happens.
