There was a lot of water deep enough to swim in, but it wasn’t a pool. There was nice, pretty grass at the bottom. A truck was in the middle of the water. Current-day Paul and I were swimming in the water. We swam around the tires and under the teiluck. I guess we could breathe under water. We swam up near one another. We both stretched out our our arms as far as they would stretch and touched each other’s fingertips. We smiled at one another. I said, “I like Nancy. She is so wonderful.” Then Paul said, “Yes, she is.”

Then the dream ended.

Then on the heels of that dream, I dreamed that I woke up from that dream and posted about it on the forum.

When you spend so long thinking about writing on the forum that it stalls you from doing something.

If you're reading this, you are looking for something to do.

Similar things have happened to me in dreams. Something Beatles-related will happen and I will think to myself in the dream “I have to tell everybody at the BB about this”.

This is like the hardcore Beatles fan thread, but for this Forum. 

1. You notice that “M” is worth three points on the Scrabble tiles. a-hard-days-night-george-10

2. You spell out “Jet ” and “Zig” with Scrabble tiles when you play.

3. You use “Zig” as a verb in your everyday life.  

Unless you were around back then, you wouldn’t get the reference. Her handle is MeanMrsMustard. I used to call her M3. She then noticed this while playing Scrabble.

When you have a dream like this:

@Joe and his family were visiting several places in the US, and they came to my house to stay for a couple of days. Ted declared that New Orleans and New York were his favorite places in America. Rosie could fly, and if you held her hand, you flew with her. She wanted to go to a playground a few miles from my house. I took her one day in my car. She wanted to go the next day too. I told her I would go with her, but that I needed her to fly us there and back (you could fly a straight line and save time) so that I would have some time to spend visiting with her mum and dad before she and her family had to leave to go home to Cardiff. She said that would be fine. She flew me there, and we played for about an hour then I told her it was time to go. She didn’t put up a fuss. She flew us back to my house.

That reminds me, we need to bring ‘zigged’ back. That was a wonderful verb!

I had something similar happening lately: A few days ago I was on a kick of the jazz standard ‘Lullaby Of Birdland’ and one line contains the words  ‘weepy old willow’. This connection of a word to describe the usage of the lacrimal gland and a botanical object also reminded me of another time where I had seen this very precise combination.

So, long story short: I also had to think of you @WeepingAtlasCedars!a-hard-days-night-george-10

Not once does the diversity seem forced -- the genius of the record is how the vaudevillian "When I'm 64" seems like a logical extension of "Within You Without You" and how it provides a gateway to the chiming guitars of "Lovely Rita. - Stephen T. Erlewine on Sgt Pepper's

Holy smokes, I can contribute to the WeepyC club! I was playing an anagram name, and two of the words were ‘weepy’ and ‘ewe’…

This probably doesn’t belong here, but I can’t think of where else to put it. 

 

I was watching a non-Beatles-related YouTube video and decided to read the comments (rookie mistake, I know).  By sheer coincidence, I stumbled across a comment by one Annadog40.

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'.
