Talk:A Simple Desultory Philippic (or How I Was Robert McNamara'd into Submission)

message: Like other songs similar to this, unfortunately we can't post the lyrics verbatim and wiki-link all the relevant words, as it would be a copyright violation.  --Interiot 22:53, 20 September 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Agree, he's poking fun at Dylan - Dylan was standing at the bar in a club where Simon was performing and a friend made him laugh while he was looking at Simon. Simon took it the wrong way, and thought he was laughing at him, so this song and the other version of it is Simon "getting his own back". Vera, Chuck & Dave (talk) 17:31, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

message: Re: "Dylan Thomas was a poet whom [sic] Bob Dylan may have greatly admired, and there is a popular misconception that he took his last name from him.":
If all you know is a "may have", it's best to refrain entirely. From Dylan's Chronicles we now know more, however. Bob Dylan's "real" (original) name is Robert Allen Zimmerman. He was called Robert or Bobby, never Bob. When he came to New York to have a go at the big time, he first thought of calling himself Robert Allen, discarding the Zimmerman, but leaving the rest intact (think of the folk song "Bar'bra Allen"). He didn't have his own apartment in New York until sometime after he'd recorded his first record for Columbia, and in the the mean time he stayed at the homes of various friends and associates. He'd listen to their records and read their books and magazines. From a copy of Downbeat he came across the name Allyn (some jazz musician or other), and it occurred to him he might change Robert Allen to Robert Allyn. Then he read someone's Dylan Thomas volume, and decided to substitute Dylan for Allyn (notice how similar they are). It's not clear what happened to the Robert, but he rejected Bobby Dylan on the ground that it was too reminiscent of Bobby Darin (the man himself hugely popular at the time). 
So, yes, Bob Dylan most certainly took his show business name from Dylan Thomas; it's not a "misconception". The misconception, the thing Bob Dylan had denied for several decades, is that he was thus attempting to honor Dylan Thomas because he "greatly admired" Dylan Thomas. No. He did like the poems he'd read at his friend's digs, but that had nothing to do with adopting the name. Adopting the name had to do with euphony and visual appeal, and he came to it by degrees.

message: Anyone know what connection, if any, the (defunct?) Giantway chain had with any of these Giants, and if so, which one(s)?
The store I'm most familiar with was located in Petosky, MI, and was Giantway until some point in the 80's when the name changed to Giant. At some point in the 90's it became (and remains to this day) a Glen's. 
Glen's is pretty much a straight up grocery store/supermarket, but Giantway/Giant seemed to be more in the line of a Meijer's or Super WalMart/K-Mart/Target, in that it sold lots of stuff you'd never really expect see in a grocery. Clothes, toys, electronics, music, etc, although not quite on the scale as those other stores.
I have fond memories of the Giantway, so I've been attempting to look up information about it, but can't really find much other than references to "such and such store (formerly a Giantway)" which does nothing but tell me I didn't just imagine such a store existed. 12.75.24.195 07:25, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
