If you didn’t have to sleep, what would you with the extra time?

Read, eat, walk, play games with my kids, watch movies, chat to HKL, work, listen to music, arrange world peace ….. the usual stuff :)

Im just curious Where’s the Beatles Name came from? @Ahhh Girl

And @HongKongLady , if you mean the name Beatles:

“The three guitarists (John, Paul, George), billing themselves at least three times as Johnny and the Moondogs, were playing rock and roll whenever they could find a drummer. Lennon’s art school friend Stuart Sutcliffe joined in January 1960, and it was he who suggested changing the band’s name to Beatals, as a tribute to Buddy Holly and the Crickets. They used the name through May, when they became the Silver Beetles, by early July, they had changed their name to the Silver Beatles and by the middle of August to the Beatles.” According to Wikipedia anyway :)

Plus Beatles is a nice play on words – for the bug and the fact they began with a lot of ‘beat’ music which was popular at the time.

Oh, hahaha. How embarrassing. See how freakingly self-centered I can be. I didn’t even think about it being a question of how The Beatles got their name. Thanks for stepping up to the plate, tr.

Why some people lack of common sense?  Or they just too lazy

Maybe a bit of both sometimes?

 

[EDIT] And I think people get bad habits, then they don’t look at what they do with a fresh eye and see how silly it can be. It needs someone they trust to tell them to maybe change their behaviour.

Every human has a bit of stupid in them and at times think they know best and so promptly look like idiots when it all goes wrong. I think it has been passed down thru the genes since Adam and Eve ate the fruit despite warnings and were promptly kicked out of the Garden of Eden.

Because common seance is linked to wisdom (experience) so some people don’t have as much experience with common sense things that come naturally to other people.

I think I mentioned this before, but I’ll say it again. The first thing I’d do is get @Joe set for life so he could quit his day job and spend his time working on the Beatles Bible.

Then, I would spend time traveling the world going to meet the hardcore BBers on this site.
