Yoko Ono to Repeat 'Cut Piece' Feat

PARIS Sept. 15 — Lots of things have been done in the name of world peace. Here's one that hasn't been tried in nearly 40 years.

Yoko Ono will invite an audience today in Paris to cut off her clothing with scissors in the name of world peace. The "Cut Piece" performance repeats a legendary show she did in 1964, well before she met and married late Beatles' star John Lennon.

The 70-year-old Ono will stand on stage alone and ask each member of the audience to silently cut a piece of her clothing and "send it to the one you love."

Ono says the events since Nine-Eleven have made her feel "terribly vulnerable." She says the performance is her hope for world peace.

>Oh Yoko

"Your inside is out and your outside is in
Your outside is in and your inside is out
So come on come on
Come on is such a joy
Come on is such a joy
Come on make it easy
Come on make it easy
Make it easy make it easy
Everybody's got something to hide except for me and my monkey."

Oh jeez. Who needs to see that. Maybe after she's naked we can send her to Kim Jong Il as an offering of peace. If Kim doesn't stand down, we will send a naked Barbara Streisand.

The "Cut Piece" performance repeats a legendary show she did in 1964..."

Legendary is whose mind? Hers? I'd never heard of it before.

"... well before she met and married late Beatles' star John Lennon. "

Which is why she became famous. It had and has nothing to do with her "art".

There are laws preventing the exportation of weapons of mass destruction. ;)

If Yoko Ono were to marry Luigi Nono; then she were to write a piece of music for nine instruments, based on the themes to a famous French musical, we could have:

The Yoko Ono Nono No No Nanette Nonette.
