I'm really looking forward to reading that Chris/John essay, hopefully soon. I intend to print everything out. They've both been so quiet about what went on, there's not been that much written about the two of them. I'm curious, where did you find all of this stuff?

That's a BIG surprise about John. That would be a shame after 26 years & a child, too. This is the first I've heard of this. You must be very observant. He's dyed his hair & lost some weight. Hmm, I'm not sure what to make of that.

I don't know about Chris & John getting back together. I think they're more like brother & sister now. And, I think Chris is with someone else now anyway.

I really have to stop picking at it and just wrap it up already. It's like my baby and I think I'm having trouble letting go of it! I keep finding more stuff to add. I got all the info from almost 25 years of obsession LOL. Sad but true. They were my teenage obsession (OK maybe an adult obsession also) and I have way too many sources of info to even name--audio/video/mags newspapers etc. But it was all out there, I didn't make it up. :-P I think even they will get a kick out of reading it. Writing the beginning was fun-- when they were happy. Once they split- it got a bit less fun!- but still worth writing about. John has been quieter about it but Chris actually said a LOT of absolutely lovely things about him over the years.

I had suspected about John for a while after seeing some pics from Australia w/ no ring-- but I figured maybe it was just a fluke, he lost it etc. But I checked back to the shots from Earls Court etc and no ring there either, so it's been awhile. I think if it was just 'lost' he would have replaced by now. :-) Very weird, after 25 yrs, but who knows...there could have been problems over a long period of time.

The brother/sister thing could always shift, if circumstances make it so it doesn't *have* to be that way anymore. I hope Chris *has* found someone that makes her happy. I truly do. I just think in her position and at her age, it might be difficult. (Older men are considered a 'catch' and can easily get younger women, but unfortunately it doesn't seem to work the other way around....)

But anyway, w/ FMac you never know....
