Lennon fans freezing their toes off in NYC
 

Not nearly as monumental as Pearl Harbor (though certainly a cultural touchstone in its own right), today is the anniversary of John Lennon's death, and, as usual, clusters of fans have gathered at the Dakota and Strawberry Fields to pay homage. I admire their dedication, but holy toledo, it's cold out today!

Did anyone see the documentary on him that was out this summer? Was it good?

And the follow-up-- after thinking, "What knuckleheads, going out to Strawberry Fields in the fracking cold," I happened to be at 72nd and CPW for a lunch date with ten minutes to kill, so guess where I wandered over to?

Knuckleheads. Takes one to know one, I guess.

Genuine Risk,
I always liked John L. "Imagine" and "give Peace a Chance" were two of my favorites.
Anyway, good to know you got home ok...cold as can be here in the Catskills.
I came across this today and at first thought the guy was in Iraq.
I have no idea where he is...but if anyone can figure out where he is, I'm sure he'd appreciate some help.

was 19 this morning. thank goodness for fireplaces.

will be mid 60's next week. that's the south for ya.

lennon was a communist.
anyone who mourns his death is a communist sympathizer or worse.

if I was NYPD commissioner, Id arrest everyone of those freaks and at least put a scare into them.
just beat them a bit or deprive them of sleep, but something to straighten them out.


Repent

That's my boy!

lol
heya somer, how's it going? things on the improve for you? figured they were, i saw you posted about a car.

yeah, certain things you can count on around here. and repents take on things is one of them. never a dull moment i guess.

Totally off subject, DaHoss, but your use of "different strokes" reminded me of watching American TV in Argentina-- my husband and I would try to pick up Spanish by watching Nick at Nite, dubbed in Spanish. The funniest part was how they translated names of shows. "Perfect Strangers" stayed pretty much the same, "Two Perfect Strangers," but "Mork and Mindy" became "Mork From the Planet Ork," I couldn't figure out what "Growing Pains" was translated as, and "Diff'rent Strokes" was translated as... "Black and White." Tee hee.

guess I qualify...:rolleyes:

Comrade! :)

Have you heard the new "LOVE" album (have I asked this before)? I think George Martin and his son did a terrific job on it.

hey there comrade!
I've heard a few songs but not the whole album...what I have heard though is great:)

careful, or you commie pinkos will get turned in to the fbi or cia. lol

what are you reporting? why, they're lennon fans. lock them up and throw away the key!

Allah Akbar, repent.

sounds so funny coming from the rhinestone cowboy:D

The greatest hypocracy is Repent claims he's a Pearl Jam fan.

They are as outspoken a band against the current criminal administration as has ever existed. They have a song mocking Dubya that Eddie Vedder even wears a Bush mask while singing it.

But, Repent is a big fan of theirs.

And, apparantly, John Lennon was a communist ( oh yeah, I forgot, Pearl Jam even plays one of his songs..." Gimme Some Truth " ).

Finally, a lone reasonable voice addressing the pressing topics of our day.

he is truly a light in the wilderness.
