Dylan highly honored to be an almost real Texan


The current issue of Rolling Stone contains the following quote attributed to Bob Dylan, which needs no explanation or amplification (and, if it does, you won't get it from me):

"I think you really have to be a Texan to appreciate the vastness of (the state) and the emptiness of it. But I'm an honorary Texan. George Bush, when he was governor, gave me a proclamation that says I'm an honorary Texan. As if anybody needed proof. It's no small thing. I take it as a high honor."

I can't help it, I must pose the question. Is it really that much of an honor to be an honorary citizen of an empty state?
