A 67 year old Lennon...what might have he been doing today?

I'd like to think he'd have given Paul a call and invited him round for dinner. Then afterwards, maybe get the guitars out and have a jam

That'd be 66, right? Born 1940?

Doh!
You're right. I keep thinking it's next year already.

I would like to think at some point over the past 26 years John would have done some work with Paul. Pretty sure Paul would have been up for it. John could be VERY moody but I do think he would have realised how good they were for each other.
It's a nice thought anyway!!!

and to me and Mickey Mantle... both born on 10/20.

I dont think there ever would have been a Beatles reunion. As John said, the expectations were just too high and no matter what they did the response would have been "its not as good as.....". I like to think that John would have collaborated with Paul on some albums. Happy birthday John, wherever you are.

I'm certain that they would've got back together for some sort of reunion. Remember the Elliot Mintz interview on the beach at the end of the Imagine movie. He sounded optimistic.
