A tidbit from the Bradenton Herald: David Jefferson had said he couldn’t be on the team, and indeed is not listed as to any affiliation… but is listed by the Herald as present.
It’ll interesting to read his testimony….
Sorry, way OT, but I just found an excellent interview with John Lennon on the Tom Snyder show from the mid seventies. It always amazes me how down to earth the Beatles were considering their unbelievable fame. I always liked Tom Snyder’s show, but I think he’s too “liberal” to have a show anymore, (sad commentary).
Just punch on “read the article” under “John Lennon Interviewed By Tom Snyder: The Nicest Egomaniac”

Elana Schor from “the Hill”, is interviewed “in depth”, by Amy Goodman…watch the “Cadillac” of news…
Cynthia Mckinny said she had poll watchers to make sure the beginning vote started at zero. Georgia passed a law that made it impossible for people to do that again. Then she lost.
Larry: John Lennon has always been my #1 musical artist…I think he was the best.

He could be abrasive even to his friends, but he always, always told the truth, and didn’t have a pretentious bone in his body. I’m pissed though, because I tried to download the whole thing last night and my dial-up won’t let me get more then half the interview.
Like so many things lately, that Mark Chapman story doesn’t make a lick of sense. I hope I get to see that Lennon movie soon. I don’t think it has played here yet.
