Oh I see. So you are divorced and she is your first wife?

And... many of John's compositions in the New York/Yoko Ono years were frankly crap. And he could only be the person he wanted to be when he was doped up on LSD, which was pretty much every day when he was still married to Cynthia.


Beetle, you could learn a valuable lesson from Lennon.  Practicing what you preach.  To sit here and criticize him further enhances the point.   I know, Double Fantasy was such a crappy record.  Not to mention that Lennon preferred the NYC lifestyle, as opposed to the London scene.   Harrison preferred it, but had trouble getting a visa.   He NEVER claimed to be a "great person that all people should strive to be".   However, he did have the balls to tell the truth.  "Right now, we're probably more popular than Jesus".  

Who gives a damn that one of the greatest songwriters of all-time was "not a great guitar player"?  I'm failing to get the correlation here.

Ok, tell me, would you rather be attacked with a plastic fork or a handgun?

Your serious arent you?

Let me say this about that.  If i knew I was going to be killed and I had a choice........a clean shot through the brain would be a million times more preferrable than being stabbed 10,000 times by a plastic fork for about 20/30 minutes until my central nervous system just shut down and I bled out.

What about you?  if you knew you were going to be killed by one or the other, which would you prefer :rofl

I said attack, not kill.
So would you rather have some nitwit attacking you with a plastic fork or a handgun?

No, we have most stuff except HANDGUNS.
reasons:
1. easily conceilable
2. not practically appliable in shooting anything we shoot up here.
3. highly effective in shooting humans at close range, which is....forbidden.

FYI, I do have firearms in the home ;)

well....Lennon was attacked, and died as a result...I guess....I thought thats what we were talking about here.  

I think MDC could probably have killed lennon with a plastic fork if he took careful aim and followed through with a deep thrombic thrust.

Perhaps if Lennon had a plastic fork on him he could have fought off MDCs "38-special attack"....


What are you getting at?

Oh!  I get it :aok

If some nitwit were attacking me with a p[lastic fork I would shoot that nitwit with my Glock19.  And yes, I would prefer the nitwit have a plastic fork instead of a gun, but I accept that most nitwits stay at home and type idiotic things across the inTARDnet to other nitwits :eek:
