LOL! did he really say that?! ive gotta say that is sooo funny! - interesting, to say the least he he! johns so sweet though!- i love that he did the whole protective thing afterwards! he really loved her!

And thanks for putting up the questionnaire thing! its really cute! I love how he also names himself - as well as chris - as his best friend and 'pets'! LOL! and the miscellaneous likes thing is sweet too!
"Most thrilling experience: Christine Perfect" - hehehe! LOL!

yeah, the other guys listed being on TV or silly stuff like that, but you can see where John's head was at. He was kind of on a roll, writing her name towards the end there. Me thinks someone was rather missing his pretty little wife the day he had to fill out that survey LOL.

And I noticed in the J/C story i wrote it was from Melody Maker. Will have to fix that someday.

It was sort of funny that he listed himself as his best friend and 'pet'...quite telling to think you're your own best friend... I read in some interview how Peter described John as really being a loner type of person, how he'd just go off by himself a lot-- "like a fisherman." For some reason, I remember that analogy vividly, I thought it was so poetic! Chris also once described J as a very private person, who liked to read and keep to himself. He seemed happy in his own company.

Oddly I am very much like that. I could be alone all day and really be very happy just being w/ myself! and i might very well list Fleetwood Mac as my most thrilling experience LOL, how sad is that?

thats very much something i may also be likely to do!

Sweet that johns head was always in the right place! hes very cute! he really was missing her! But yea, he always struck me as the quiet, shy type, only really sharing himself with the people he really loves (bassicly chris!) but i think thats really sweet, you really can see how much love was there! sorry, i could talk about john and chris for days on end! do you have almost every interview they ever did?!! because its just so cool! do you have any rare quotes and things they said about each other or anything? sorry! i just love stuff like that, i kind of obsess over this band! i do adore them!

Then you, my friend, are in the right forum.

A lot of what I have I'm trying to stick in this J/C thing. I'm sure there are interviews out there I don't have, but don't remind me of that. I have lots of great quotes for part three... Chris gushed about him endlessly in the eighties LOL.

I know it's been awhile. I haven't worked on it in ages because I wasn't thrilled w/ how it was coming out. Part 3 will be pretty short compared to the other 2 parts, but eventually I hope to get it done. thanks for asking.

Lis, if you're out there in whatever form, you're not off the hook! I'd like the Q&A with John to continue, and for you to write more when you have time. Keep in touch!

I am not letting Lis off-the-hook either. I really enjoyed reading the C&J story and, as she has time, hope this is something she will continue writing...yes, even if part 3 is smaller than the others, Lis.
