Hey trcanberra .

I’m watching a short documentary film you might enjoy.  It’s called Top Ten Monks and it’s about a group of monks who made the pop charts with Gregorian chants.  

Sounds awesome @Necko

Lord have mercy. a-hard-days-night-paul-10 When I saw @BORSCHT’s post, I thought the words of the post were in his signature line. paul-mccartney-facepalm_gif I’m not used to the new forum layout yet. I PM’d BORSCHT and made a complete numskull of myself. Since I thought his post was blank, I asked him if it was a statement about the album cover.ahdn_paul_01

BORSCHT, I promise I’m not normally this off kilter. I do hope you enjoy your time here on the Beatles Bible Fab Forum. Your post has been approved and you are free to post.

The other day, I decided that my character design for Floyd ‘Pink’ Pinkerton should reflect the fact that Roger Waters conceived the character and his story from a combination of his own and Roger ‘Syd’ Barrett’s experiences (I had originally drawn him looking basically like Syd). So I attempted to combine the two Rogers’ features, and I must say the result is not bad. a-hard-days-night-paul-8 

My new and improved Pink is quite a handsome lad, really. 🙂

I’m a very curious person and I often find myself asking questions in my head.  Some of these questions can border on the downright weird.  For entertainment’s sake, here are some recent ones.

 

1. What training do those people who sell food in the aisles of baseball parks undergo?  Is there a full two-week program that goes like this?

“Okay, so you walk up and down the aisles.  While you are doing this, you repeatedly shout out what the product that is hanging around your neck is.  If a customer asks for a lemonade – for God ‘s sake – do NOT hand them a beer.”

2. How high is the electric bill at a baseball park?  It must be astronomical.

3. If two members of Alcoholics Anonymous go out to lunch, does the sponsor advise the sponsee on what to order?

4. For that matter, is there a such thing as Pyromaniacs Anonymous?  It seems like there is one for every other type of problem…

5. If it were hypothetically possible for two clones to reproduce sexually, would the resulting offspring be a third clone or would it have the problems characteristic of inbreeding?

(I later looked this one up.  It seems the inbreeding thing is the more likely outcome.)

If in the UK it would be in-depth training covering moving and handling, food hygiene, first aid, health and safety, customer relations, report filling, finance and a whole lot of other crap that wastes everyone’s life. Surprised you can breathe in a job without being trained in how to do so in line with the organisations policies and procedures nowadays.

The child wouldn’t be a clone due to recessive genes.

Short answer: it is. Here’s a self-interested but informative site. Seems the move to LED lights and solar power generation can cut up to 25% off the costs, about $1mill/year at one park.

That big bold ‘report’ text is just too easy to hit on the mobile – hope there’s more to it than just pressing it.
