i just saw John Lennon's Imagine for the first time... i cried all over again at the loss of this gentle sweet dedicated passionate brave and relentlessly hopeful and optimistic man from our midst... just as i mourn Douglas Adams, Sid Barret and Jim Henson.

i wish for you all the sentiments of the lyrics of this song... Happy Christmas (War is Over)... i am so sorry that the clip i am including here is so sad but i feel it is true and so i must place it here. I was looking for a clip with video of John but i ran into this one first.

i love the British... it is not that i knew that until recently... it is just that i have come to realise alot of my music and my reading and entertainment has come from England.... alot of what makes me think, has molded me, and comforts me...

Pink Floyd, The Beatles, The Moody Blues, Douglas Adams, Terry Pratchett, Jasper FForde, Monty Python, The BBC's Planet Earth and Blue Planet... all of what David Attenbourough has done... i grew up reading the great English classics ...and i am still discovering more all the time.

So i guess you can see why it hurt me so much that the British here did not love me back... but i think probably the above cited, if ever they met me, would love me smiley - smiley I have that on the best authority smiley - winkeye

so this really is it... goodbye all... i can't bear the quietude here any longer.

oh...

smiley - smileysmiley - hug you know, when you said all that, i didn't agree with some of it (You are a great person and welcome anywhere and in any thread) but it still made me feel a little better... it comforted me...

i was in the classic christmas conundrum i think... alone, not in a place i could call home yet, nighttime, not happy with physical or mental self...

smiley - yikes its a good thing i don't have tv or i maybe might have really gone off the deep end smiley - weird

and when we feel like that we really want to be told that things really arn't so bad... and i think we are willing to suspend belief a little too, we are so desperate!

so thanks Bobby smiley - hug you really are a gem!

oh! and here smiley - cheerup i found two of these great sponge drinking glass washers at the mall... is the green one okay? smiley - smiley

Yeah, it's really sad how John Lennon preaches about "imagine no posessions" and then walks into his Georgian Mansion!
