tonight.
WAR IS OVER. IF YOU WANT IT.
So this is Christmas And what have you done Another year over And a new one just begun Ans so this is Christmas I hope you have fun The near and the dear one The old and the young
A very merry Christmas And a happy New Year Let's hope it's a good one Without any fear And so this is Christmas For weak and for strong For rich and the poor ones The world is so wrong And so happy Christmas For black and for white For yellow and red ones Let's stop all the fight A very merry Christmas And a happy New Year Let's hope it's a good one Without any fear And so this is Christmas And what have we done Another year over And a new one just begun Ans so this is Christmas I hope you have fun The near and the dear one The old and the young A very merry Christmas And a happy New Year Let's hope it's a good one Without any fear War is over over If you want it War is over Now...

24 years I think has, sadly, only been maybe twice(?)), I go to Strawberry Fields.
Went to Penny Lane Pub here in Richmond for lunch today (locals know the place). It's a Beatles-themed British pub run by an authentic Scouser, Terry O'Neill. When my friend and I walked in, there was a table w/ a large framed photo of Lennon, lyrics to "Imagine" and about four lit candles (in the shape of green apples (Apple Corps no doubt)). Almost lost it right there. :(
