Jeremy Clarkson is a newspaper columnist and main presenter of Top Gear a very popular BBC series about cars. He has a history of making outlandish statements that fussy busybodys with no sense of humour complain about. One being he runs over foxes as they kill his chickens, at times chasing them in his landrover. He also dislikes the environmentalists (those who are campaigning against the changing earth, sea levels rising etc) 'beardy weirdo's' and Political Correctness 'the looney bridage'.

Actually, youth is the cause of our problems. Their anarchist, apathetic ways are ruining our ability to function as a society, or as a forum. So, I propose a ban on any more 14 and youngers joining.

What, was I doing my Michelle Bachmann impression again? So Sorry.
Hahahaha…I really hate Michelle Bachmann, my aunt Jeni is in her congressional district so I’ve heard her complaining about her for years. All the Republican candidates this year are just truly wacko.
Ali, AMAZING job on your cousin. We need more adorable little seven-year-old Beatles fans in this world.
It will not be so easy with my friend’s cousin, who’s five.
Me (to friend’s mom): Look at my tshirt!
Friend’s mom (Looking at my Paul concert shirt): Ah, there’s a Beatle on it!
5-year-old: That’s not a beetle, silly. It’s just some old man.
It was kind of cute but also frustrating. And he is not just some random old man!

Thank you! Haha, she kept begging me to let her listen to A Day In The Life and I kept telling her that it would scare the crap out of her. We went to go see Hugo on Friday at the movies and she kept crawling into my lap saying that the movie was scaring her.
I let her listen to the first part, but I stopped when it got to the crescendo. 
Good Dog Nigel. Arf, Arf, he goes, a merry sight. Our little hairy friend. Arf, Arf, upon the lampost bright, arfing around the bend. Nice dog! Goo boy, waggie tail and beg. Clever Nigel, jump for joy

I think she could probably handle it…was Hugo good? I've been wanting to see it.

AMAZING (like all of Scorsese's work)! I LOVED it! Unfortunately, I was the only one who understood it (out of my sister, my cousin and her brother who's 9) 🙁

God , on my end it was a joke, sheesh. This pisses me off more then anything, when people take my clear as day sarcastic remarks seriously.
Oh, and can someone from the UK explain to me who Jeremy Clarkson is? I have a collection of his articles, and a) they're hilarious, and b) he makes jokes and references to the Beatles.
If you ever find yourself taking a word he says seriously, then stop. MMM's description of him is fairly accurate. He's actually a fairly intelligent man, but he doesn't remember what he was complaining about a year ago and so totally contradicts himself from one week to the next.
I told her I didn’t

Offline So, I was watching I Am Sam in Religion class, and, because my snarky classmate was being, well, snarky, when Sam named his kid Lucy Diamond, he laughed, and asked me if I got it.
I promptly left his table and went far far away. And those covers are BAD.

Offline Okay, so in Washington they do this thing every year in December called the Christmas House Tour where six or seven really rich people with awesome houses open their (pristinely cleaned and professionally decorated for the occasion, with designer Christmas trees) houses, or the first floors anyway, and members of the public can buy tickets for a bus tour. This year one of the houses was this one that was built in the 18th century in Massachusetts and moved down here by rail. My mom really wanted wanted to see the inside, so she made me take the house tour with her. And these people in one of the other houses had AN ORIGINAL DRAWING BY JOHN!!!!
it was like a portrait-type thingy of him and Yoko, a line drawing, and it was…really awesome. They had it framed up in their hall.
I was standing right in front of it for about ten minutes, going 
.
I am so jealous of really rich people.

Offline Should have got your mum to cause a distraction and promptly swiped it Seaglass and then ran off to live in Hawaii with your John artwork. I am very envious of you at this moment.
And Sun King , show me a movie which features decent covers of beatle songs, the ones in Across The Universe were awful.

The covers in the movie “Imagine That” starring Eddie Murphy are worst. Trust me.

Offline I work in an area that features the twin cities of Lewiston and Auburn. The locals tend to refer to Lewiston/Auburn as L/A.
One night last week, while in George mode, I was driving home from work while listening to my “George” playlist consisting of songs he either wrote or sang. There was snow on the ground, but the air temperature was unseasonably warm which caused a great deal of fog.
By now, I think you know which song came on…

Offline There's this really nice 50's/60's diner where I live and I walked in there once and Lady Madonna was playing, yes, I did sing and dance. I can hear a Beatles song from miles away, I swear I have a 6th Beatle sense. Anyone else who thinks they have a 6th Beatle sense?

While out to dinner the other night, the restaurant was playing music softly over their speaker system. Through the din of other diners and our own conversation, I heard the opening chods to Macca's Jet . My head popped up like a deer hearing a twig snap.
Does that count?

Offline A great moment today. At my weekly Reach For The Top (trivia. All questions are worth 10 points, so a 20 point category has 2 questions) game, there was a Beatles category. 20 point. Q1: Who, later in his career, created a touring band called the All Star Band?
A: Ringo Starr .
Q2: What was the original hometown of the Beatles?
A: Liverpool.

Offline Wow, those are really easy.
I think I too have a sixth Beatle sense. I was in the supermarket and it was really loud, so I could barely hear the background music. Suddenly, I got this weird tingly sort of feeling. Then, I realized the song was “Come Together .”

Offline Had my last day of school before Christmas today. Convinced my tutor to play Christmas Time (Is Here Again) (and Killing In The Name- she played the explicit), someone else convinced her to play Happy Xmas, and we had a game of “picture clues”. This was one of the questions, in a “singers” round:
I told her I didn’t

Hmmmmm….what could those three pictures represent?
Let me think.
