I find allergies weird how your body over reacts to something that isn’t harmful.

Allergies are actually pretty strange. I always ask myself questions about them like “What causes it?” “Why? Just why do people have allergies?”. I swear, I ask myself too many weird questions… a-hard-days-night-paul-7

Maybe it’s because people’s immune systems don’t get good training so they don’t know what’s bad or not.

About ten percent of people claim to be allergic to penicillin, however, ninety percent of people who make this claim are not actually allergic to penicillin. 

I'm Necko.  I'm like Ringo except I wear necklaces.

I'm also ewe2 on weekends.

YouTube’s copyright is weird. Sometimes it notices the Beatles songs and will either mute or block it or it will notice a non Beatles song and it will be fine, other times it doesn’t notice anything even if it has a Beatles song and I could make money off it.

 

I’ll be moving the muted/blocked ones to dailymotion.

I’ve noticed that too. Tho, sometimes it’ll mute cover songs that aren’t even related to The Beatles, which I find ridiculous. Lawyers are crazy a-hard-days-night-paul-11

Oh, and I already moved from YouTube playlists. I’ve just started using streaming services, which work good (but I hate Spotify).

The technology can’t always be relied upon – neither can the human element.

hkl and I arranged a breakfast / lunch Skype hook-up; I had to make sure the restaurant at this end was open as Canberra is pretty quiet at New Year.

Arrived there – “sorry mate, we shut the kitchen, not enough customers – want a coffee?”

Found another venue, hkl and I ordered – and couldn’t connect through Skype.

Sigh!

Trying to learn ‘Ding Dong, Ding Dong ‘ and I realised that George is playing in the key of D in the video, even though the song’s in E. Perhaps during recording he used a capo on the second fret– I know I would. ‘Tis full of B Major chords and I despise ’em a-hard-days-night-paul-3

They always play their commercial from 75 years ago where I work (which isn’t Geico, surprisingly). I was never sure if they were screwing with us or not. Guess not.

Today I learned that it takes 331 m/s for sound to make its way to our ears in air. I could care less if it wasn’t 331 m/s closer to listening to music….

Wikipedia was made 15 years ago today! Can you guess what one of the most edited articles was?
