Really? I mean… 

It's two words made of one-syllable fragments. And the first two fragments of each word are identical. 

So I hope you're joking… 

If I seem to act unkind, it's only me, it's not my mind that is confusing things.

When you risk having your iPod taken away at school on a day with a huge state standardized test where if you are caught with one of these you fail the test, just so you can listen to the Beatles to and from school. But it is a risk I am willing to take.

I have problems spelling that. True story : It took me a while to write correctly McCartney when I was a kid. a-hard-days-night-paul-3

I can't spell ob li di ob li da. Like that sporcle quiz where you name every Beatle song, I fail so hard trying to spell it while under pressure. I also can't spell Octopus in Octopus' Garden ( I just checked to make sure I spelled it right, I did thankfully)

 

YKYaHBFW you believe John's ghost is the one messing around with your Beatles' poster. Yes I can blame it on horrible double sided tape, but I don't want to.

*(1+1)+1=3* What did I say, he's messing with me man!

Well we all shine on like the moon, the stars, and the sun.

a-hard-days-night-ringo-8That is awesome! We have some around my house and I am determined to cross it with my friends, once I get a white suit or white pants of some sort. Then it will be even better.

I love it, Mith!

Whenever I walk through a zebra crossing, it's with a sense of reverence and a smile on my face.

You should try crossing the actual one at Abbey Road . Never fails to send shivers up my spine.

On a related note, my rescheduled Hamburg trip is at the end of this month. I’m definitely going to stand in the doorway where the cover for John Lennon ‘s Rock ‘N’ Roll album was shot, and get a photo of me in the same pose. That’ll be a moment.

Can buy me love! Please consider supporting the Beatles Bible on Amazon
Or buy my paperback/ebook! Riding So High – The Beatles and Drugs

a-hard-days-night-ringo-8It's good to hear the trip is on! I wish you a wonderful time. Hopefully there will pic or 2 posted here.

God willing, me and the missus are talking about a possible trip to England (London and Liverpool) within the next year or so. The AR crossing is definitely going to be a priority.

Do you (or anyone else really) know if the AR studios give tours? I know it's probably changed at least a zillion times since the boys last recorded there together, but just to be able to stand in “old number 2″… Talk about shivers up the spine. They will have to wake me up with smelling salts – repeatedly.

You would be surprised to see that we don't have these in downtown. We have a new major and he made people paint them. a-hard-days-night-ringo-14

I know!! I'd cry. I'd kiss that ground!! My plan is going there next year. It's going to be impossible this one, but next Summer I'm sooo there, even if I have to eat Corn Flakes and teach 7 days a week for the rest of my life. a-hard-days-night-ringo-12

That is my lifes dream. I really hope to do it someday. I would be in awe about walking in the same spot the Beatles did. That's just…amazing.

Sadly, no, the studio doesn’t do tours. And I did get to cross Abbey Road , but I didn’t get anyone to take my picture! It’s a busy street and we were there with a tour group, so it would have taken a long time to wait until there were no cars and no one else crossing from the other direction. BUT I am going back eventually to do it right. And I did sign my name on the wall outside the studio. They said that so many people sign it that it has to be painted over several knew a year.

You know you're a hardcore Beatles fan when what you do in detention for six hours is you write down all their albums and singles in order of release

When you get excited and tab a page in a book you are reading if it has a Beatles reference. Ex: Today I was reading my book and had just finished another chapter, so I flipped the page and saw that the next chapter was called,”Tomorrow Never Knows “. I ripped off a bit of my bookmark to tab the page.

Also, the last book I read had a lot of Beatles references. One guy kept calling the main character Ringo, and later he said he really looked more like John Lennon , but Ringo was a catchier nickname for him. It was awesome!
