"They sent us back to get deloused," said Lennon, explaining their lateness in arriving for their concert in Vancouver

Oct 9th - Happy Birthday

For those of my friends who still care, today would mark the 66th birthday of John Lennon, a man who, while flawed, was working towards a better world and a better life. He embraced the maxim, Be The Change You Wish To See In The World.

Here are some relevant sites. Here's the wikipedia entry on Lennon. Here's the YouTube home movie of Lennon's 31st birthday and here's an article of this year's commemorative donation to MSF and the Centre for Constitutional Rights in memory of John.

Oh, and he was a freakin' awesome talent before he was gunned down in New York City in December of 1980.

Dave, you're not here with me to toss back a toast to Dr. Winston O'Boogie but I'm sure you're raising your glass somewhere at this moment.

Happy Birthday John!

xoxo
