@meanmistermustard, I agree with that, however the little turntable animation they put together for the vinyl releases with samples of all the songs and accurate labels for each album etc. was very cool.

Sadly no longer works, so no redeeming qualities now.

Edit: The animation still works on desktop, but no music plays.

thebeatles.com/vinyl

If I spoke prose you'd all find out, I don't know what I talk about.

Its that type of thing that infuriates me with Apple. They are so keen to shove down our throats that the Beatles were a band of incredible talent and quality and therefore charge us top dollar for what they put out yet the website is a cheap crappy lame joke. I once had it as one of my favourites, i never even remembered to put it back in when i moved over to Chrome from IE and that was about 18 months ago.

Really they should phone up Joe and ask for some pointers. Either that or come on the forum and ask for pointers.

Thats because beatle.com is a crap website whereas this one has been put together by someone with more than half a brain cell. Yippee. I can go to beatles.com and whilst there be redirected to youtube to watch 39 seconds of the ‘Ticket To Ride ‘ video. Great!!! Just what every fan wants to do.a-hard-days-night-paul-3 

Beetles would be able to create a better website than the dolts in charge of the official Beatles one.

 

Well, I guess that they should hire you, Ahhh Girl  and zig. Not joking, im sure if you ppl will look after it, Beatles popularity will increase by miles

Considering ideas like ‘put up all of the fecking videos in their complete forms’ would be shot down for being too forward thinking and radical i’d either resign or be sacked for losing my patience and calling them all a bunch of useless idiots.

Also i doubt fainting every time Paul and/or Ringo walks into the room or calls or sends a fax or an email would help get my work done. And then there is the turning up outside wherever Paul and Ringo are meant to be instead of being in the office, seeing them and then passing out. I mean how does one work with an ex-Beatle and be able to speak whole words legibly and in a coherent sentence(s)?

Imagine that I once wanted to sign up there instead of here at the BB…

Glad the sign up wasn’t working, otherwise I wouldn’t be here!

Agreed, we would both be dismissed fairly quickly blue-meanie

Now, as for the time we do last, it will be fine for mmm to be passed out when Paul is around because then he wouldn’t notice my awol status so keenly. a-hard-days-night-paul-7

Beatleva, I’m glad we snagged you!!

Shouldnt you be showing some compassion to a fellow worker who’s passed out than disappearing to who knows where! @Ahhh Girl? Glad to be of service tho, i’ll make sure i don’t faint anywhere that might be too inconvenient for you.a-hard-days-night-paul-3a-hard-days-night-john-6apple01

@meanmistermustard, don’t worry I would have presence of mind enough to send someone to your aid heart By the time they bring you around and you recover you senses, I wouldn’t be much later getting back to my desk.

Well, um, I tried to get out of this sticky situation I got myself in. Yeah, I’m not getting out of punishment for this one., am I? Off to the step I go.

Let me think about this. If Paul was going to come revive me, fainting may be the way to go. If not, then Olympic office desk hurdling becomes the sport of the moment.

C’mon @Ahhh Girl! If you run away, Paul is farther away! Simple obvious logic…

You should run, or casually, calmly walk, towards him, ask him how he is, and if he’s in need of some assistance retrieving something in the supply closet.
While inside, Kite (your ever-masked co-worker) would lock you in and turn off all electricity in an attempt to feign power outage. It would of course be Winter when he stopped by and become very cold. The flashlight you two have wont be enough to warm you and isn’t helping find a way out!
Now, naturally he’d need to be warm, so you the kind Apple employee would offer your warmth to him. He’d really have no choice, and one thing’d lead to another (it’s really cold), ta-da you win!

Goal!

@Mr. Kite, shhhhhhhh, don’t tell this plan out in public. Someone might try to stop it. It is too good to have someone come along and muck it up!

When you see someone wearing an Ecko t-shirt and want to look on the person’s side or back for the N. You know it has to be on the shirt somewhere.

Happened with me too a few days ago and I confess that’s when I got to know its meaning.

…you go back to the first page of this thread to reminisce “for a few minutes” and then see this at the top of your screen:
