Dead Guys Interview - John Lennon
The other day I sat down for a chat with ex-Beatle, John Lennon.  Here’s what we talked about.

Greg - Hi John, let me just say I’m a HUGE fan.

John - You don’t look that huge.

Greg - Seriously.

John -  Everybody loves you when you're six feet in the ground.

Greg - What is your advice to writers and other creative sorts?

John - All you need is love.

Greg - Good one...that would make a good song.

John  - Indeed.

Greg - What are your thoughts on imagination, creativity, dreams, etc?

John - I believe in everything until it's disproved.  So I believe in fairies, the myths, dragons. It all exists, even if it's in your mind.  Who's to say that dreams and nightmares aren't as real as the here and now?

Greg - Some people call you a dreamer.  What do you have to say to that?

John - You may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one. I hope someday you'll join us, and the world will be as one.

Greg - That would make a good sign too.

John - Indeed.

Greg - Keep going—you’re on a roll.

John - I just said indeed. 

Greg - I know, but it’s working!

John - Okay, I have something say.

Greg - See?  What’d I tell you?

John - We've got this gift of love, but love is like a precious plant. You can't just accept it and leave it in the cupboard or just think it's going to get on by itself. You've got to keep watering it. You've got to really look after it and nurture it.

Greg - Any thoughts on the war in Iraq.

John - All we are saying is give peace a chance.

Well, there you have it, folks.  A moment in time with a real rock legend. Until next time—Greg.

What a great presentation! Many visuals brought the "talk" to life. The students loved the spooky laughter contest and to be able to play a part from the book. Greg Trine really relates to kids!
