I distinctly remember an interview with Ringo from the 60's where he was asked how long he thought the Beatles would last. His reply intimated that no one would want to listen to a bunch of 70 year old Beatles, would they? Wrong! Their influence has spread wide and far, and their music is timeless and still touches me, after all these years! BTW, your 'John doll' just reminded me, I had a set of painted plaster statues of the Beatles way back when... wonder what happened to them?

When I was young I used to try to imagine what he would be like at 40. That was a long time ago...
memories. i saw him in a boat in central park.
What a sad day to all of us of a certain age.
