Happy Birthday...

 John Lennon. Though it is most unfortunate that he is not around to celebrate it. I am not sure if he'd still be making good music. Paul is making stuff that is just okay. If his reputation was based on his post-1980 output or stuff after John was murdered, no one would know him. But I guess you can say that about a lot of the musicians from the 60s.  The Rolling Stones are just an oldies act now. Looking at their set list, there is nothing after the "Some Girls" album.

Two-thirds of a century old

 It's scary to think about that but nothing I can do except enjoy life for as long as I can. I was reminded today that October 8 would have been John Lennon's 82nd birthday. There will be a memorial at Strawberry Fields in Central Park.  I haven't been to New York City since January 2020 so doubt if I will get there for it.
