If the mods were flawless, I wouldn’t have this nasty head cold. Great souvenir I brought home from Europe.

We should get back on topic.

Hey, @Ahhh Girl, I am in Positano, Italy this week and also suffering from a cold I picked up last week in Greece. Where were you? (Sorry, this  is too important to stay on topic)

I sure wish I could travel like you, I don’t have a passport and have never flown in a plane, I bet it’s fun going all these places, especially considering there’s people like Ron Nasty that you already know who can help you around the area.

That is some ambitious itinerary!  At least you got most of it in before you got what seems to be the almost inevitable souvenir of modern travel –some kind of health bug. Hope you get better soon!

I meant to say this earlier, @georgiewood. Mom and I went to Greece and Italy in 2014 for 3 weeks. We spent lots of time in Rome, Florence, Venice. We also went to Milan and Pisa as day trips. Ohhh Boy isn’t keen on art museums, so when we went this year, we only took time for the big highlights. All 3 of us had been to Paris and London, so we had done a lot of the big sites. We took time to see things we hadn’t seen before. So, the itinerary for that trip looks more ambitious than it really was. We have done more on trips. a-hard-days-night-john-6

Ohhh Boy saw the Roman Colosseum, the Trevi Fountain, The Last Supper, David, the Doge’ s Palace, the Grand Canal (and took a gondola ride), Bletchley Park, and Dover Castle. Surprisingly, what he liked the most was Monet’s Garden. He came home and planted flowers. heart

Sounds fantastic! By chance, my wife and I just returned from a three week trip to Greece and Italy. In 1986, I toured Giverny as well. Just to illustrate the power of music, I can recall so vividly when driving from Paris to Giverny that Annie Lennox’ No More I Love Yous was playing on the radio.  Geez, can she ever sing!  I love that song, especially the unique introduction. Not only did I have the song in my head the whole day, but I can never think about Monet or Giverny without the song as a sound track.

I do something similar, but with people and numbers. For example, the number 36 reminds me of Buddy Holly because he was born in 1936.

When the number 64 comes up everyone else starts singing the 64 Zoo Lane theme and you just think of Vera Chuck and Dave.

“While I will admit to a certain cynicism, the fact is that I’m a naysayer and hatchet man in the fight against violence. I pride myself in taking a punch and I’ll gladly take another - because I choose to live my life in the company of Ghandi and King. My concerns are global. I reject absolutely revenge, aggression and retaliation. The foundation of such a method is love. I love you, Sheriff Truman.”

When you’re singing the song ‘Brigg Fair’ in music class and the first thought you have when you sing the first line (It was on the fifth of August) is ‘Revolver ‘!

Not once does the diversity seem forced -- the genius of the record is how the vaudevillian "When I'm 64" seems like a logical extension of "Within You Without You" and how it provides a gateway to the chiming guitars of "Lovely Rita. - Stephen T. Erlewine on Sgt Pepper's
