...Your critical article on the Doman-Delacato program [May 31] brought my dander up. Our poorly coordinated son could only walk up and down stairs holding on for dear life and had balance so poor that he couldn't lift up one foot without falling over. He spent a year each in nursery school and kindergarten, only taking up space and not knowing what was going on around him. He started the Doman-Delacato program, tailored to his needs, the summer after kindergarten. It's true, he may always have some problems, and we are aware of this...

...worst by far in the three weeks of violence. Some students, singling out the Paris stock market as a symbol of capitalism, broke into the Bourse, ripped down quotation boards and built a fire inside the building. Others built barricades at the Place de la Bastille, a symbol dear to every revolutionary's heart. Getting tough, police fired tear gas, concussion grenades, slashed any head within range of their long, hard-rubber truncheons. In all, some 30 fierce battles erupted throughout Paris, and the city authorities sent out emergency calls for doctors to report to the Sorbonne medical school...

...others scrambled to the highest spot in the 9 by 140-ft. area, frantically constructed a barricade of timber and heavy burlap to keep out the flood, foul air and deadly gases.

...loooo, my dear friends," flutes the voice. Blowing kisses, fluttering his large, bony fingers and rolling his eyes, Tiny Tim skips onstage like Bea Lillie in drag: shoulder-length locks, tattersall sports jacket decorated with a sheriff's badge, plaid shirt and orange socks. He always carries a copy of the New Testament and lugs a soiled brown shop ping bag in which he always keeps such talismans as a dime-store compact (he uses pale Elizabeth Arden foundation makeup), two notebooks containing the lyrics of 500 songs, and, of course, his "dear, sweet" ukulele...

...pass," is the last line of a beautiful song that rings true as one of the most accurate social observations of our time. "And I do hope you receive it well depending on the way you feel that you've lived," is one of several great lines in Dear Landlord explaining a philosophy of interaction between two dependent individuals. There's the suggestion that Dylan is talking about his relation to God (the landlord); but I won't go into it further because the song pretty much explains itself once you've decided whom Dylan is addressing.
