I kinda like Yoko, I'm glad she's kept her mind at work - even if I don't dig a particular thing she does, I'm glad she's out there being challenging.

I always had this notion of John that he needed a dominant partner to kinda take things over, on an emotional level. So, Yoko seems a good fit - she almost kinda mentored him.

Just like I have friends who seem to exist only in the context of their current relationship, maybe John had Paul as his dominant figure in his life, and when Yoko replaced Paul that caused friction in a larger context than Yoko just being Paul's buddy's wife. Paul and Yoko relationship seemed more like rivals for custody of John than anything else.

I wonder if Yoko and Linda somehow replaced the niche that been occupied by the other man? Coming of age at age 30 isn't so nuts if you consider Beatlemania hitting a guy at age 18 may delay his development at some level.

Psychobabble, sorry.

Happy Birthday, Yoko.
