Dylanchanted
Created by: Nosila
Pronunciation: dill an chan ted
Sentence: When Sweet Marie fell out of love with Rob Fillan, her Bob Dylan wannabe boyfriend, she knew that The Times They Were A Changing. She had become dylanchented with the whole relationship because all he ever said to her were things like Lay Lady Lay and that he was Like A Rolling Stone. Writing her love songs that were actually protest anthems did little to endear Mr. Tambourine Man to her. After she booted him, she knew he was out there, Blowin' in the Wind and if there was Blood on the Tracks,he'd soon be Knock Knock Knockin' on Heaven's Door...assuming bad boys even went there.
Etymology: Dylan (Bob Dylan, singer/songwriter) & Disenchanted (freed from enchantment;no longer enchanted by someone/thing)

Today's definition was inspired by Bob Dylan's new song "My Wife's Home Town", one of may favorites on his new album. Apparently his wife is from Hell, and has one heck of an evil eye. Couldn't help but wonder what she thinks of this song ~ James

Great Idea James :) I enjoyed that and seeing the twitter area. I also added this site to StumbleUpon.com to bring more traffic and fresh faces for new voting based on merit, not on popularity or cheating like some do...I love it here! :)~ Deb
Hey abrakadeborah, thank you for sharing your locally fired love words. ~ James

Fun with Dylan...thanks for this new idea. I agree, I am glad to see fresh faces for new voting based on merit.....this will hopefully dilute any "clique" factors or cheating.
