The Beatles are my favorite band and Lennon my favorite of the band. I have paid a lot of attention to Yoko's antics over the years.

I would never blame Yoko for breaking up the Beatles, because the simple fact is that John desperately wanted out by the time she came on the scene. She did, however, get him addicted to heroin and is a talentless poseur who made him look like an ass in front of the world on many occasions. Watch the Live Peace in Toronto video some time for a good example.

Furthermore, when you judge her class, you should consider that she is wealthy beyond words due to John's talent, not hers, but refuses to share any of it with John's son, Julian, who has struggled for years.

It matters not to me what your views of her are. You should be aware, however, that if you were in a room with one hundred people who have been paying attention, you would likely be the only one supporting her.

I've been immune to peer pressure for years.

I'll keep looking for signs that Yoko is your typical talentless artsy widow, as I would have expected her to be. I have not found the evidence, but have heard your testimony. Instead, I've been amazed at her low profile.

I have a hard time pitying Julian. He's the firstborn son (so far as we know) of a very gifted man. Got way more going for him, in just that, than most of. Pity about his talent vacuum.

Can this be the end of it, mate?
