John Lennon Got It All Wrong
Don’t get me wrong, I love John Lennon and I love the Beatles, but their song “All You Need is Love,” a lovely sentiment to be sure, is also far from the truth. The wild and wonderful state of “being in love” is natures greatest trick to get us to keep the species going, but […]
