I wonder how many anniversary greetings you’ll get, Beck.

Anyway, here’s another one. Glad that you joined us, and I’m looking forward to many more of your posts!

Indeed. John was a rock musician; Yoko was/is a performance artist.

I wonder why they begin the evening news with ‘Good Evening,’ then proceed to tell you why it isn’t.
