    I'm not a John Lennon fan at all, so probably nothing special. Not that I don't think it was tragic that he was killed. I remember that day.

    But anyway I will definitely not be wearing those fucking Nike "Imagine" sneakers...

    He Was a hell of a songwriter....he left an impression on me big time. Died way to damed soon. The way he told it....straight up. He was a leader of many, awakened young and old minds, and truly lived the way he believed. Some say he was a nut case but if he was,he was a genuine nut case. I miss him, and I know there were many songs left in him. So sad.

    I agree with Olhippie. I always celebrate his birthday, never his death date. I find that to be morbid, honestly. I also never understoon the whole "R.I.P." thing on t-shirts or logos. By saying "R.I.P.", you're actually not allowing that person to rest in peace. The day this prophetic hippie was born was a day worthy of much more celebration than the day he was murdered. I wasn't even conceived of yet. I was still 5 years in coming when this atrocity happened. I'm actually very glad I wasn't there for that.

    Lighting a candle and listening to his music is okay, I guess. I don't see the point in it, but it's your thing.

    Attach a black ribbon on the car's radio antenna.

    Although I don't drive much anymore ('cept for the weekend's this & that).

    It's the thing I remember everyone doing after his death.

    I share my birthday with John Lennon, and my dad shares his birthday with George Harrison. Joy, joy, joy.

    Hey! Damnit, my birthday was last week and no one even noticed!

    Anyway, I'll probably sacrifice a few more ducklings to my John Lennon Srine that I have in my closet. Then I'll burn incense soaked in cows blood to comemorate his love of peace. Then I'll slit my wrists and bang a copper rice-cooker over my head as a form of self-punishment for not being as good a person as John Lennon was. After that, I'll probably play "Imagine" on my accordion 40 times on the roof of my dorm to represent the 40 years he was alive...:rolleyes:


    I mean, seriously, I liked him too but is it really necessary to make plans months in advance? You're sounding freakishly obsessive to me...
