In summary: John. :rolleyes:*Wonders who Yoko Ono is*Must not be old enough to know.:tongue2: :rolleyes:Well, she was John Lennon's second wife and a controversial figure in the Beatles history. She was known for her avant-garde art and unconventional relationship with Lennon.

That's about 72 years too many. Number nine my ***.

Its scary! :cry: :cry: :cry:

What's most scary is that Lennon has been dead for over twenty years now.

It seems like only yesterday that we were smoking the hookah pipe and playing our mandolins by the soft red glow of a lava lamp.

I think that if he hadn't died he'd still be alive. What I mean by that is that the probabilities of him living to see the year 2005 were greatly reduced by his 1980 death.

I don't think I can agree with that one.

Need I mention the White Album?

You weren't satisfied with the normal infirmities of old-age? Now you're going dislexic too?

Must not be old enough to know.:-p :rolleyes:

How can you not know?

"Be my Yoko Ono" is such a great song. If that can't get you laid, nothing can.

how could Paul be the walrus, didn't Lennon say "I am the Walrus" ? At least, that's what I learned on The Big Lebowski. Then again, Donny was out of his element 'cause they were talking about Lenin...

I'm almost positive the Walrus was Ringo.

Yeah, John lennon was the walrus. Just ask ferris bueler.

But in "Glass Onion", he also said, "The walrus was Paul". Clearly, Paul is the walrus, George is the Taxman, Ringo lives with octopi, and John is a pot-smoking FBI agent. If we were to go just by the song, "I Am Walrus", then John would be both the walrus and the eggman...and that would just be silly.

Lenin left many secret papers in which Stalin was referred to as "The Walrus", due, I suppose, to his large moustache.

Paul was in concert down the road last night (Anaheim). The concert was beamed to the space station. Groovy stuff.

So Stalin was The Walrus. :approve:

Who was Marx? Oh yes, Captain Spalding, aka The Duck.
