Wednesday Wickedness: John Lennon

1. “Since light travels faster than sound, people appear bright until you hear them speak.” Who was the last celebrity that you thought was bright until you saw them interviewed?
I'm going to have to go along with my friend Bud over at WTIT with....


2. “Time you enjoy wasting, was not wasted.” Do you get upset and do you think you're being lazy when you do nothing?
It really depends. I don't like to waste time because it is precious. We are only here for a short time. Plus we are only given 24hrs in a day.

3. “If someone thinks that love and peace is a cliché that must have been left behind in the Sixties, that's his problem. Love and peace are eternal.” Do you think that the U.S. and our wars seem to just ignore our history?
Is it me? I don't understand this question. But don't go by me. It's been a long day.

4. "I'm not going to change the way I look or the way I feel to conform to anything. I've always been a freak. So I've been a freak all my life and I have to live with that, you know. I'm one of those people." Do you feel you conform just to fit in?
Nope. I feel like I'm very unique. I don't change my thoughts or beliefs or change for anyone.

5. "Life is what happens while you are busy making other plans." Do you feel that you at times do not enjoy the moment because you are worried about what comes next?
I always worry about what happens next. I'm the diagram next to the description of Murphy's Law in Merriam Websters Unabridged Dictionary.

6. "The more real you get, the more unreal everything else is." Does it seem that when you learn more about yourself, that others' opinions of you are more likely to seem stupid?
I honestly don't ask people for their opinions about me.

7. "A dream you dream alone is only a dream. A dream you dream together is reality." Do you feel that when you share beliefs with someone, there is more likelihood in accomplish a goal?
Ok, here I go getting cynical, but I learned to try not to put high expectations in people.

8. "God is a concept by which we measure our pain." How religious or spiritual are you? Or how cynical are you? (Pick your question.)
I think I am a religious person. I am a cradle Catholic. However, I haven't been as devout as I used to be. I used to go to church every week...now, I haven't been in months. But I believe in God and I'm quite fond of His Son. :)

9. "Before Elvis there was nothing." Do you think as rock 'n roll history is concerned, that Elvis had that big an impact?

He had a big enough impact for me to put him on my body. Below is a photo of the tattoo I have of him. Plus, this blog is named after one of his songs. He by far to me is the best entertainer who ever lived. I've loved him since I was 4yrs old. Now putting aside my bias..(LOL)..Yes, I believe he had a huge impact on rock n roll history. John Lennon was a smart man. "Before Elvis there was nothing"

10. "Our society is run by insane people for insane objectives. I think we're being run by maniacs for maniacal ends and I think I'm liable to be put away as insane for expressing that." Do you feel after what has happened on Wall Street and our financial institutions, that his quote is more relevant today?
Insane is a strong word. LOL
