Time Flies.....John Lennon Shot 24 Years Ago Today!
 
Like it was yesterday I remember the night.....was watching Monday Night Football when the news broke in the middle of the telecast......John Lennon had been shot and killed outside of his apartment building, the Dakota......................what a shame and an absolute waste.:doh:

I still have the newspapers from that. Very sad, all the guy ever wanted was for everyone to get along.

I can remember exactly what I was doing I was 20 and I was in my room with my girlfriend, (wife now) and 2 friends with a huge pile of cocaine and a big bag of pot and it came on WBCN :smokin: very sad night He was born on the same day as me also. I am glad my kids are not like I was.

Twenty five years ago this week, Jen and I moved into this house, I was laid off, and that doofus killed John Lennon. Tough week.

and he wants unsupervised release to visit his parents before they die . . . me thinks he's much safer behind bars.
