There is a fiction book I really like called Time and Again in which The Dakota plays a prominent role (nothing to do with John Lennon however—a different time period all together. However when I read the book and I also knew of John Lennon’s connection to the building it added extra resonance for me).

The Dionne quints were my mother’s favorite pop-culture icons when she was growing up. They were born within days of each other (them & my mother) - as a young girl she scrapbooked articles about them. I hardly ever think about how old my mother would be if she were here, but 91, wow. That’s a nice long life.

RIP all the Dionne quints.

Saw a documentary on the Dionne quintuplets. They were Canadian and were taken from their parents and made wards of the crown, and, actually put on display in a sort of theme park!

Disgusting. I believe as adults they sued the government for what had been done to them.
