Does this tell us something?

In France, they have Aéroport Paris-Charles de Gaulle, and in Poland, airports named after Fryderyk Chopin and Ignacy Jan Paderewski, interpreter of Chopin, and second Prime Minister of the Polish Republic.

In England there is John Lennon Airport, which I will never use. Need I say why?

This post is most certainly linked to the previous one.

"In England there is John Lennon Airport, which I will never use."
However,should it ever suit your purse or your convenience, may I suggest
"Imagine no John Lennon
It's easy if you try"

I know, I know, his Yoko makes you queasy, and his burden is blight.

Forget him, as the world soon will.

Oh Ps : Iwas never very aware, let alone enamored, of "imagine" thus not especially irritated by it, until I met it in a set textbook (OUP, probably, might've been longman), from which time my bile has been unbounded for its treatment as a secular hymn.

One should go for Quohelet and vanity of vanities all is vanity.

And in fairness to Lennon and Ono, if you ve never seen it ,watch this unPC clip:

Wise words, Mike, and thank you for the link.

I love your remark: "I know, I know, his Yoko makes you queasy, and his burden is blight."

God bless!
