		Only late in life, Lennon discovered that his lifelong inability to spell and tendency to transform one word into another of similar sound was a sign of dyslexia.
		Lennon signed the contract in January 1964 and the book - with 31 pieces of writing and enough drawings - was published three months later on March 23, 1964.

		Nevertheless, Bresler's point is that the government did not consider John Lennon a harmless rock 'n' roller whose awkward entrance into the world of political activism often carried a high cringe factor (as in his Montreal "bed-in").
		And in a way that official paranoia might have been justified, because as embarrassing as Lennon and Ono's political publicity stunts occasionally became, John Lennon was always capable of seizing the spotlight and speaking directly to millions of young people who venerated him.
		But in December 1980, when John Lennon's first album in half a decade was high on the charts, Carter was a lame duck chief executive, having lost his reelection bid to Ronald Reagan.

		Two weeks before the bust, Lennon had been warned that the police were out to get him because he was a "loudmouth." As a precaution, he had (as he put it) "cleaned the house out [of drugs]." Nevertheless, marijuana was found in the house by the police.
		Charges against Yoko Ono were dropped and Lennon was fined and found guilty of "an offence of moral turpitude." At the time of their arrest, Yoko Ono was pregnant and almost suffered a miscarriage.

		The enduring legacy of John Lennon's best album has overshadowed a glaring historical irony: the Beatles' original architect was also responsible for some of the Fab Four's most erratic solo albums.
		When the name "John Lennon" is mentioned today, an image of the proto-dreamer sitting at his piano calmly asserting his starry-eyed ideals over a serene melody immediately comes to mind.
		Lennon was writing structured songs and producing something cohesive, a sign that he would not forever be a rugged, tripped-out specter.

	The U.S. vs. John Lennon - Rotten Tomatoes
		David Leaf and John Scheinfeld struggled for over 15 years to produce this documentary, and it's emergence in the year 2006 is a testament to the film's timeliness.
		Officially endorsed by Lennon's widow, the film gains considerable credibility and flavor from her interviews, rare footage from the family archives (they documented everything), and especially the inclusion of more than three dozen Lennon songs.
		In addition to listening to Lennon's music, I discovered so many new angles to important events that helped to shape pop culture and political policies of the 1960s and 70s and some that may need to be revisited today.

		Lennon's first stab at a solo effort consisted of a random sound collage recorded in one all-night session, more or less as a commemoration of the incipient Lennon-Ono union (ahem).
		Both Clapton and Lennon were close to their respective peaks at this point, and some of it does rock out.
		Despite this, Lennon's musical ideas are already starting to narrow at this point (retro rock 'n' roll like "It's So Hard," with Jim Gordon on drums), and his politicized lyrics are getting increasingly nasty ("Gimme Some Truth").

		Lennon was likely unaware of SDI/Star Wars, but it is a safe bet he would have publicly protested the moment he learned of it.
		Had Lennon lived, there is little doubt he would have attempted to turn public opinion against Star Wars, just as he successfully led the effort--as a major rock star--to turn public opinion against US involvement in Vietnam War in the late Sixties and early Seventies.
		Lennon placed more blame on leftist Jerry Rubin than on Nixon for the harassment he and Yoko endured from the United States Government in the early 1970s.
