John Lennon
When Yahoo recently renovated its e mail (asking $20 for something called Mail Extra I don't need), it didn't say it was shutting down POP service, which was taking forwards of my AOL mail into the Yahoo box. Or maybe it was AOL that changed. So yeah, Happy Halloween & Thanksgiving to you, too.
Received an annual Christmas e mail from old old (high school era) friend with attached PDF file I know contains everything about what his grown kids have done over the past year. I haven't opened that attachment in many years. I appreciate being on his list to receive it. But if you're gonna send those & expect them to be read, you should send them snail mail with real Christmas cards.
I used to consider this one of John's more boneheaded political songs (did he write one that wasn't?), but now it sounds quite catchy & prescient, funny, too. Springsteen ought to add it to his concert repertoire as an encore sing-a-long.
