...tells the documentary's offscreen interviewer. "Although I might have been wrong about that." No, that's about right. The musical exploration went according to his plan. What he hadn't expected was the stardom. He says of his first idol, the folk poet Woody Guthrie, "You could listen to his songs and actually learn how to live." Dylan's fans found the same home truths in his work...
...mini-documentaries about dog-training methods that prime canines to sniff out the prestigious white truffle; some trainers introduce the fungus to puppies by rubbing it on the mother's teat. Various interactive exhibits encourage visitors to submerge themselves in the truffle habitat using all five senses.

By day, I follow pitch by pitch on the Nats' website--when I'm supposed to be writing. When they lose, I'm grumpy. When they win one, which is rare these days, I'm up. This is really crazy. It's one thing when your childhood is at stake, you've grown up with the team, and you tell yourself you're rooting on behalf of your late father of blessed...
