Cash VS Dylan
Edbauer thinks Cash is better than Dylan. Being the English professor I am, I'll read the two most immediate texts by both to settle this score.
Hello I'm Johnny Cash - my Johnny Cash comic book
Chronicles, Vol 1 - the new Bob Dylan memoir.

In the Cash comic:
"I'm half-drunk! But the other half of me says there's more to life than this! I remembr the songs I used to sing --- about Jesus!"

In Dylan's book:
"At first I was only able to do little tings, local things. Tactics, really. Unexpected things like pouring a bottle of whiskey over my head and walking into a department store and act pie-eyed."

Score: Dylan.

Just for the record, Rice, I told you that I would personally take Cash over Dylan any day. It was a personal call. And I'll stick by that. It doesn't have anything to do with one being better than the other. It has to do with a whole string of associations I make with Johnny Cash, including early memories from my childhood days and all of that stuff.

So you can just go eat a big bowl of shut up.
