Healthy Stealthy...
Or is it just my imagination?

Dale Houstman...
In a way it is. I mean, Bono (like a lot of other people) is obviously a
fan of Lennon's, and maybe takes some of his activism from that source
of inspiration, but...I doubt if he's trying to be Lennon, especially in
the music department: he doesn't wrote songs even an eighth as good as
John's. I think he's basically a pud...

IBen Getiner...
Well, he's for the queers. And Lennon hated them..

Cam...
Brilliant use of a shoe horn to get the voices in your head on paper!
Bravo!! Do you really think he hated Epstein? Elton? Is your full name
Iben Getiner Stoopider?


Dale Houstman...
You're so creepy my wife hates you, and she's never read any of your posts.

IBen Getiner...
I'll bet that you and your 'wife' have been to this site a time or
two... Maybe you met there...??

Do you mean, is Bono trying to be a talented musician as John was?

If so, then the answer is a very obvious "no".

Dale Houstman...
Well - I think he's TRYING. Very trying...


JohnB...
Bono has his talents - but they are few compared to JL. He (& U2) did
play with Paul at Live8 (Sgt. Pepper) and that's as close as he'll ever
get to John.

fattuchus...
I don't think Bono is trying to imitate anyone, but he is a big Lennon
fan.


bottlebleu...
Well, Yoko's free, so far as I know.

Dale Houstman...
Wow! She's lowered her prices...

Lookingglass...
Bono is 'Yoko-free'... //^)

Dale Houstman...
...and now with even more glutinated swan fat and bear liver!

Lookingglass...
Is Yoko the 'B' in B/Ono...?

Dale Houstman...
