I’m hoping you learned that by reading about it – not experiencing it firsthand.

The horse head in “The Godfather” was real. Here I was thinking it was a mock up all this time.

From Snopes:

The studio had encouraged Francis Ford Coppola to use a fake horse head, but he didn’t like the mock-up. His scouts found a horse ready for slaughter at a dog-food plant in New Jersey. The art director picked one that looked like the horse in the film and said, “When that one is slaughtered, send us the head.” Coppola later remembered, “One day, a crate with dry ice came with this horse’s head in it.”

I’m sorry that you had to dead with somebody like that. I hate when people yell. There was a teacher at my high school who always yelled at her students, and though she was never my teacher, just hearing her yell could make my eyes tear up.

I learned that our drummer learned to keep the beat for Here Comes The Sun

(I begin to regret making them play that particular tune; I could have picked an easier one a-hard-days-night-paul-10 Poor lads!)

Someone should have spoke up against her; no teacher has the right to do that to any pupil. Can’t handle the class then do something else.

A thing I learned a long time ago but was proven again at The Masters yesterday. The game of golf can turn you into its bitch any old time it wants to. Just ask Jordan Spieth.

Kudos to Englishmen Danny Willett (eventual 2016 Masters champ) and Lee Westwood for not throwing in the towel after Spieth amassed what was at first considered an insurmountable lead. When everyone else seemed to give up, those two kept making shots and applying pressure. It turned out to be an amazing finish and I’m glad I watched it. I did not have the heart, however, to watch Spieth honor the custom of the previous year’s champ helping the current champ put on the coveted green jacket. Hello, Mr. Wound. Allow me to introduce you to Mr. Salt.

Well, I meant to learn ‘Calico Skies’, but I ended up learning ‘Dark Horse ‘ instead. It’s all good a-hard-days-night-george-9 and I’ll get to that wretched flingerplicking one of these days. a-hard-days-night-paul-7 

‘Dark Hoarse’ is a great song, it’s a pity the vocals are so awful ahdn_paul_01

I like the vocals, it really adds to the song I think. If he didn’t have laryngitus it wouldn’t be the same.

 

If you wanted to hear it without a messed-up voice, well here you go:

I can understand what he’s saying ever so much better; I still have to learn the lyrics to it before I can play it properly, I only learnt the chords.

You are fourteen percent more likely to die on your birthday than on any other day of the year. 

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

I'm also ewe2 on weekends.

Most likely to post things that make you go hmm... 2015, 2016, 2017.

Hey-ya @Beatlebug, do you know the James Taylor song Carolina In My Mind? On the way to work the radio played Here Comes The Sun and Carolina back-to-back and it seemed like a great fit (especially considering your Carolina audience 😉 )

*sings* On my way to work, I rode a big green bus… a-hard-days-night-george-10 

I do seem to recall having heard if that song, yes. a-hard-days-night-paul-7 I expect I shall give it a listen…
