I mentioned this station…….. it’s one I found on my ‘box’…… all the cartoons……MMT…..Great stuff.

 

One complaint though, Why would you use the word ‘bitching’? It seems pejorative, judgemental, derogative, stereotypical, sexist and designed to devalue and de’Mean Mr McCartney, Harrison and Starr.   

I wouldn’t use such a word in connection with Yoko without expecting it to immediately get Nasty and suffering Extra Testy complaints.

 

 I shall write to my MP.

‘Bitching’ is used in a derogatory sense to mean ‘gossiping’, which is what G, P & R were doing- making snide comments about Yoko that they probably wouldn’t have said to her face.

There is no other word bar ‘bitching’ that I could think of to describe what they were doing- gossiping was too light-hearted.

I have no major problems with Yoko- I’m indifferent to her as I’ve previously said. Notice I said nothing mean about Yoko in my above comment.

 

You and MMM lighten up!!

I wasn’t bitching about you…..I’m not bitching about you now……..I wasn’t even bitching about bitching! Just trying to brighten everyone’s day with some irony.

Thought you might laugh…at someone exercising his right to be too easily offended.

 

Ahh well!

 

I’m coming to terms with the fact that my square peg just doesn’t quite fit.

Looking at the ‘Top Ten Club’ at the bottom of the page, it only has one item on it: 

I Want To Stream Your Band: The Beatles’ music made available on streaming services worldwide

I’ve not seen it without the usual ten items on it, topmost always being the Fab Forum and (usually) second-most the main page. Strange.

It’s more a matter of not giving a false impression or misunderstanding – think George in the Anthology series explaining what getting pished means in the UK in case folk thinks it means the other.

Plus Yoko and the other Beatles can be a flamey subject at times. 

 

All is good.

Neither do I. But, a bunch (almost all) of my friends have it, and they keep asking me “Why don’t you have Netflix?”, because A) I use On Demand and B) I barely even watch TV

Happy New Year NZ and Australia………..

And in due course to all of you in the BB.

 

I’m up on my roof at 12 with a crowd and fireworks all around…..usually fun and a time for some contemplation……It wouldn’t be a good New Year without some regrets……

Well have you voted in the End of the Year awards @Ellie ? The fate of some cute puppies is in your hands. At least, vote for Joe in every category 😛

And she doubled her total number of posts. Where was it?

I say in speeches that a plausible mission of artists is to make people appreciate being alive at least a little bit. I am then asked if I know of any artists who pulled that off. I reply, 'The Beatles did'.

If we are good, maybe she will make 3 posts in 2020. She is a really cool person.

And it has to be remembered that Ellie has the 3 kids to look after, which takes up time.

It must be a blessing at times that she can plop her eldest in front of the computer and tell him to do “Some website or other webby thing!” It nicely gets him out of the way when needed.

An hour to go for me. 

Blasting Sgt Pepper from our record player outside with a nice, warm bonfire. Earlier we played Judas Priest and Motorhead.

I have some sweet tea and the hubby has Shock Top beer.

Explosives on standby.

It’s been 2016 for about ten minutes here in Neckoland suburban Chicago, so I can officially wish people a happy New Year.
