Okay then.

Wikipedia is using the Beatles Bible as a reference. I read the “Maxwell’s Silver Hammer ” article and they cited the Beatles Bible article. Ain’t that cool, @Joe ?

Twickenham- Twickenham Film Studios. That’s where they filmed the footage for Let it Be. Does that help answer your question?

This day has been amazing! Apart from the problems with my phone (they couldn’t fix it, now I have to buy a new one. Great, this phone was really expensive and only 6 months old)

I got accepted by a organisation to be a new intern next year. As an intern I have to organize activities and make sure everyone has a fun time. I also have to find out what kind of problems the children could be having, perhaps at home, or at school. And then I’ll have to think of ways to help solve them. I’d also have to talk with parents about their children. I was worried it wouldn’t be suitable enough, so today I had another interview, for an internship which takes place in my university, in which I have to coach and help autistic students and help them plan and work on school. 

Furthermore, my brother scored high enough on his retake, so he too passed his finals. So proud! So next week I’ll be going to a graduation for both my siblings. I wonder if they’ll do anything with the fact that they’re twins and have the same classteacher. 

Oh and I’m chosen to go on a trip to Finland with school, at the end of September, for a week, to learn more about Child Rights and give colleges myself. I’m excited about this. We’re going with a group of 8 students, and I know 3 of them. Two of them are classmates of mine, and they’ve sort of become friends, so that’s nice.

a-hard-days-night-ringo-8Then you must take out a stupid loan with massive APR and buy it; when you become heavily in debt just bitch about the loan company and how it was their fault entirely. That seems to be the modern way for some.

Curses – missed this fine advice – bought it cash.

Ah – the frog and I are having good times on the kitchen table :)

If anyone is wondering – I am posting on my shiny new HP Slate 21.  It got some awful reviews in the press but everyone who has one seems to love it – add me to the list.  The screen is just amazing.

^ I tend to ignore most ‘professional’ reviews now and read between the lines of user comments.

Most of the negatives were:

1) It is an Android machine and not Windows or Mac – well, duh!

2) It doesn’t have an accelerometer so some games won’t work.  As if I want to pick up a 21″ screen and use it like a 7″ tablet.

3) Not a lot of inbuilt storage.  A more reasonable comment but it has USB and SD slots for movies etc. and 25GB of cloud storage free if needed.

For the price it is just magic (so far).

ahdn_paul_06 John mooned him that why he laughs

You’re not making this up, are you?

It’s one of those things that occasionally gets repeated as fact (see also: “Ringo the best drummer in the world? He’s not even the best drummer in the Beatles!”, which was by a 1980s comedian called Jasper Carrott, but gets credited to Lennon all the time).

I don’t know where the idea that Lennon mooned at McCartney came from, but it seems to be one of those rumours/inventions that become fact over time. Perhaps it actually happened. If it did, what’s the source? Who was the first to let it be known?

If it actually was rumour then that makes total sense because @Starr Shine? almost tricked me into reviving the “Day in the Life Ahhh” thread much to @meanmistermustard ‘s chagrin. That’s why I asked if it was made up. I think if John mooned Paul he would just burst laughing and they’d need another take. He just lets out a small chuckle. It may have happened, but I’m convinced that it’s a rumour.
