Hvis man har tænkt sig at lære at spille guitar, men endnu ikke ejer et instrument, så er det nok ikke en af John Lennons aflagte guitarer, man skal sætte næsen op efter.

Det er nemlig en rigtig, rigtig dyr fornøjelse.

En af den afdøde Beatles-legendes guitarer blev således søndag solgt for den nette sum af 408.000 dollars – eller hvad der svarer til 2,4 millioner kroner.

Guitaren, der blev håndbygget af Vox tilbage i 1966, blev solgt til en ukendt amerikansk køber, der nok er lidt overrasket over, at salgsprisen nåede at blive dobbelt så høj, som auktionshuset Julien’s Auctions havde forventet.

Til gengæld kan vedkommende glæde sig over at eje guitaren, der blandt andet blev brugt af Lennon til at spille solo i “I am the Walrus” under The Magical Mystery Tour tilbage i 1967. Samme år blev guitaren også brugt i videoen til “Hello, Goodbye“.

Guitaren blev efterfølgende foræret af John Lennon til Alexis Mardas som en 25-års fødselsdagsgave.

Court documents allege that after Eric Gunnar Grisse, 29, got the sack from his job at Hostgator, he jumped right back into the company's network, using a backdoor Trojan he had planted earlier.

The latest visit was not the best ’cause now I got 2 or 3 Speedd Dials , and an Antmarks what ever that is, ex.fm made me happy, a notepad even though I use Evernote, . At last a QR extension I have to learn and from my heart it’s too much. Basicly it take time and consentration from what really matters and my To Do List is long gone and I have work till next chrismas. The good thing about it must be when I have candy and icecream a candle lit  as a gesture then I love to spend the whole night in front of my computer because that’s the essens of my life-

I live in a care center, I got COL and get oxygen- My surroundings is old people in wheelchairs. So the internet came as a rescue to me. I have this wordpressblog, Pinterest, Twitter, Admin. for a facebook site. Learning about Reddit and Quora. And my favorite app must be Evernote where everything end up so I can go back and find that link to information I couldn’t live without. I have my music and facebook.
