Mr. Summers' "Wings" Snippet

...reminded me of something U2's Bono said on "60 Minutes" last night.

"I'm not fit to kiss their hem, but you wonder how great the Beatles would have been if they hadn't crawled up their own arses."
I blame drugs, the Yogi and Yoko.

Haha, that's pretty funny.

But the short answer? They would have only been worse.

Nah. It was just Yoko

I like some of the Beatles music (the newer stuff) but when their plane touched down in the U.S. in 1964 that was the beginning of the end of America.

I always thought their problem was the crappy hair cuts. Looked like a drunk barber used a large bowl.

Ahh, Jeff S - in Chinese immigrant parlance that is the "FOB [Fresh Off the Boat] Size 5 Rice Bowl Haircut".
