Just a dumb marginal note. I really love Badfinger, but I've always found their "Beatlesqe-ness" overblown. More guilt by association than any essential musical resemblance. I'm for The Rutles in that respect too.
I mean, I would stack the Beatles up against an oak for perfection...
As to the other, given that I have committed my life to rewriting the history of the Beatles to a truer and more beautiful narrative, I am swinging for the fences on that art thing.
"Quod ego dico, ego facio" is my Latin motto but, in English, I prefer what a man named Hawk said about his friend, Spenser for Hire, when they asked why those two were friends?
"Because he do what he say he gonna do." was his reply.

Mine comes from "Big Trouble in Little China:"

That’s long been my own motto, or one of them, and I take it seriously. Lux effulgeat, amigo.
An admirable motto IMHO. Personally mine is "Try, try again, again, again, again, again ...angina."

“Some days I think I should pick up polo, just to make a cooler exit”
Do you know I initially misread that as “Some days I think I should pick up polio, just to make a cooler exit”?
