and In The End the Love You Take is Equal To the Love you Make
I just love this picture. It does great things for my brain and eyes. It delivers untold and deep levels of satisfaction to my general sense of well being.
You could say I'm a Beatles fan.
And by God, you'd be spot on, laddie. I do hope someone remembers to put this picture on the head of my coffin when I'm dead. Hee hee.
luvvvv those liverpool lads! who was your favorite? I remember when Time Magazine had a centerfold poster of the Beatles (clothes on, all proper like), I hung it on my closet door and spent too much time making out with Paul.
my daughter (10) is a fan, she's reading a book on the beatles. smart girl, eh?

EEk phd! Do you know my first crush on anyone was on Paul. I was 12 and he had recently formed Wings. But it was all a part of a much bigger love affair with the Beatles, inspired by me big bruvver.
Big Bruvver, he had sat with me for a number of hours some time before, my first night staying up so late, and gave me a complete Beatles run down. All those stories behind all those songs.
The next morning he took me to the RECORD shop and bought me "Beatles 1967 - 1970" double album and John Lennon and the Plastic Ono bands' recent single "Meat City".
Send your daughter to me! I will toast her indefinitely! Clever , adorable child!

Yeah, Paul was the most dreamy Beatle, by far.
My fondest Beatles memory -- in my best friend's basement, playing pool (billiards), and listening to Sgt Pepper and Revolver albums.. hours and hours, weekend after weekend. The albums belonged to her older brother who was a John Lennon lookalike, all hippie and radical and dope smokey. Brilliant songwriting on both albums, tho. A musical awakening for me. I'm taken back, esp listening to Revolver.

Revolver is a particular favourite of mine too. Your story is great, I think you and I should publish a modern archetype : The Older Brother Who Knew The Beatles.
Whaddya think?

Oh, and of course the feminine partner: The Younger Sister Who Then Knew The Beatles And Shared.
