"Dear Katharine Hepburn, My daughter is having a graduating party in the rented house next door to you, (the one with the dog)..."

"... it will be from 7:30 to 10 — if you could stop by, you'd be most welcome. Bob Dylan."

$32,500 PER MONTH??

The standard attempt at a pre-emptive block on a call to the cops for disturbing the peace.

I'd be surprised to learn that she showed up. More likely she made plans to spend the day in Connecticut.

Right. It's totally standard, but it's so fascinating that Bob Dylan did it, and he did it to Katharine Hepburn.

And yes, the main point is to give her warning to relocate.

If she'd actually showed up for the kids party... how bizarre! How awkward!

Ha. That's nothing.

Mr. Zimmerman,

I'll be on Golden Pond with my dear friend Hank on the date you mentioned. Provided my shakes don't tip our canoe we should have a lovely time of it. In any case I don't mingle with nouveau riche social climbing parvenus. Lay Lady, Lay indeed!

Sincerely,
Miss Hepburn (to you)

Upon reflection, it might have provided the basis for an excellent screwball comedy.

And what are the odds that the note was actually written by Dylan's kid?

Too coherent for Dylan, I think you're right ChipS.

David म्हणाले...

The house has crappy rental history, it seems. Overpriced.

When was this?

Anyone know?
