John Lennon at 70

Forget me being 39 next month (no thats not a hint, you don't have to buy me anything but if you want to i am too polite to stop you of course) but more importantly John Lennon would have been 70 next month if he hadn't been shot of course (or died in the meantime). In an article in the Observer how John would have reacted to all the things he missed like 9/11, Thatcherism and ...er... David Beckham is discussed. Well thats what the article says it will talk about though it doesn't really touch on these things much apart from saying he would have loved Twitter.

What-ifs are always interesting, i suspect he would have joined the Traveling Wilburys and made a series of solo albums throughout the 80s, 90s and 00s that became ever more laid-back and probably bland before ending up critically acclaimed yet largely unheard.
