- John's father abandoned him, and his mother was killed in a car accidend when he was a kid. I won't criticize him for whatever coping skills (sarcasm, creativity) he developed to deal with that kind of pain.
- I believe he and Yoko genuinely loved each other. They made each other happy, and who on earth can begrudge them the few years of happiness they spent together?
- The "War is Over/Happy Christmas" billboards they put up around the country were awesome: [www.observer.com]

For some reason people just cant see their idols in stable relationships with women who are clearly not groupies and awesome in their own merit.

There's a story Paul tells about how he and John were talking about how AWESOME it would be if Frank Sinatra covered one of 'their' songs. Meaning 'another Lennon-McCartney orginial'.
And the only Beatles song Frank ever sang was 'Something.'
Elvis covered it, too. It's probably the most beautiful Beatles song ever done.
Paul did a great cover of it, not long after George died, on his Back in the U-S tour. The only accompaniment was Paul playing a ukelele, (I know, sp) -- and instrument George collected.

Also, I wish the Barbie post was working. I know so many people hate on Barbie, but I really like her as a doll for the same reason I like Vogue. Fantasy. I also hate Bratz and Cosmo for the same reason- skankification of American young women. Barbie is classy.

Sean Lennon lives super close to me, like within a couple of blocks, judging from how many times I've seen him around my tiny corner of the Village. FOR EXAMPLE: Boyfriend and I were having a late drunken lunch at our favorite Mexican place when these two kids come in and sit next to us. We were the only four patrons in the restaurant. In conclusion, I totally had margaritas and burritos with John Lennon's son, who is the spitting image of his father.

Oh and I always thought George was the most interesting Beatle.

Eeesh. Your rage about a man who has been dead nearly 30 years is a tad scary.

So if a husband beats his wife, we should be accosting the wife because she doesn't leave her husband? He's beating her, but she's allowing it to happen by staying with him.
I don't mean to call you out or anything, but that statement just caught my eye.

Sorry but this bothers me, when at any point am I referring to any type of abuse? You can say my anecdote is poor, but im talking about supposedly controlling people changing (in their friends minds) personalities, not abuse.
@lijakaca: Yes. thank you for the common sense.

I don't mean to drag this out, nor am I trying to start a argument, your statement just seemed odd. More so when you reply back saying that controlling someone to the point of changing their personality isn't abuse.

Male urination really *is* a kind of accomplishment, an arc of transcendence. A woman merely waters the ground she stands on.
