My bonsai tree! I don’t know the specific species but he’s been a great addition to my room.

The following people thank QuarryMan for this post:

Beatlebug, Ahhh Girl

I've been up on the mountain, and I've seen his wondrous grace,
I've sat there on the barstool and I've looked him in the face.
He seemed a little haggard, but it did not slow him down,
he was humming to the neon of the universal sound.

Maybe a very one-sided sense of teamwork but he wanted the group to go on more than anyone on the band.

I’d call that nostalgia or resistance to change rather than teamwork but sure

That’s not what I mean. Paul wasn’t just a guy that discredited ideas. He didn’t go behind everyone else’s back to record solo stuff, unlike John or George. He wasn’t the kind of person that would betray you because you don’t agree with him, he was the kind of person that tried really hard to convince you that his ideas were best. John & George on the other hand, were more of a “he doesn’t listen to me so I’m gonna go on my own”, you know. Neither is a bad approach, everyone has different ways of expressing originality. But Paul didn’t want to do things by himself, he wanted everyone to understand why he wanted the things he wanted, and for people to help him carry them out. When good ideas were proposed to him, he accepted them very quickly. That sounds like a very Gryffindor thing to me.

When I think of a selfish leader Roger Waters comes to mind more.

  

What you’re describing sounds pretty Hufflepuffish to me. Didn’t go behind his teammates’ back– Hufflepuff. Listened to the ideas of others– Hufflepuff. Wouldn’t betray you– Hufflepuff. 

Also sorry for the double post

Maybe, but Ringo is definitely the Hufflepuff leader and the second closest thing to a “warmth” attitude would be Gryffindora-hard-days-night-paul-7a-hard-days-night-paul-7Also Paul had original ideas and he would sometimes try to impose on other people (kindly, but with the ultimate intent of things going his way).

Pecan trees, yellow-poplars, and anything in the aster family (asters, daisies, sunflowers, dandelions, goldenrod, black-eyed Susan, rudbeckia). Also the rose family is very excellent, most of the (non-tropical) berries and fruits we eat come from that family. And blueberries – a beautiful plant as well as a beautiful food (not in the rose family though).

^^^ OY, I SAW THAT.

 

 

(I was telling my friends about this and I’m now known as “the nark”- I accept my narkhood, don’t do drugs, kids, drugs are bad m’kay, just listen to Nancy Reagan etc. etc.)

 

To answer your question SS? It’s probably laurel (or is that yanny?), perfectly ordinary looking hedge, actually wonderfully poisonous (sounds like my ex, wuh hey).

A girl gets lonely sometimes, Bebu, and a hedge is always rooting for you.

An apple hedge. Or an hedge apple which is something that actually exists.

I don’t know what you’re insinuating SS? but I’m never having children with a hedge! I have my limits!

a-hard-days-night-ringo-8 Just do what I do: chastise yourself publicly and swear not to do it again (until the next time) 

I like other plants, too, tomatoes and such. And mombontee’s got a nice little cactus which sprouted two lovely pink/white flowers last week! a-hard-days-night-ringo-6

Very appropriately, I’m currently listening to Stevie Wonder’s “Journey Through the Secret Life of Plants” – a soundtrack album to a nature documentary.
