Beatles trivia: Lucy in the ground with bones.

My wife and I were sitting around last night and she was debriefing me on her day.  She’s a student, you see, and is taking this anthropology course which she loves.  (NOTE: Please insert sarcasm firmly there.)  I have to give you a little background here.  I always amidst anything playing on the radio, or [...]

Lennon coming to a Starbucks near you.

I guess we really do not have enough Lennon greatest-hits packages.  Starbucks and Yoko decided that we need another.
