This is something that I wrote back when we lost Kurt Vonnegut. I reread it tonight, and it struck me as probably one of the better things that I have written at HJHOP. So, I inflict it upon you again. When George Harrison died, I was surprised by how upset I was. During the inevitable retrospectives on the local oldies station, I was simply overwhelmed, when I listened to his solo work, by his contribution...

Close, it's Pattie Boyd . She's the former wife of both George Harrison and Eric Clapton.

Wondering why there's so much hubbub over The Beatles selling all their albums on a USB drive ? Because deep down inside, everyone's hoping that someday, the Beatles' catalog will come to Apple's iTunes (and maybe Amazon, too). From what I see, though, this is just wishful thinking, and if anything, we're further from an Apple-Beatles agreement than ever. In fairness to the dreamers, The Beatles'...

The face of Ringo Starr has been seen in a droplet of water bouncing on a lotus leaf. No come back, this is Turin shroud stuff...allegedly. A team researching water-repellent leaf behaviour at Duke University in North Carolina took high-speed images, showing water drops bouncing on the surface of a leaf. James Dacey, a reporter for Physics World, wrote the story up for the magazine’s website....
