If there's a rock and roll heaven . . . .
. . . . you know they've got a hell of a band.

Happy 70th, John.

2. With thanks to the Righteous Brothers for the song:

Bobby Hatfield is now a member of the same band as John. Bill celebrates *his* 70th in a few days, on the 18th.

4. Sadly, my daughter has no idea who John Lennon is...
But she could play anything the Beatles did on the violin.

5. What if he wasn't washed in the blood of the lamb?
Jerry Garcia died and found himself in a room full of famous musicians. There was Elvis and John Lennon and Jim Croce and Jimi Hendrix. He walked over and picked up a guitar and said to himself "I can't believe it. There is a rock and roll heaven and I am gonna jam with the band?"

Elvis leaned over and said "Heaven?"

Just then Karen Carpenter walked in and sat down on the drums and said "Okay everybody, 'Close to you' on three. One, two ..."

7. My point is that a doctor calls a patient and says
I've got good news and bad news.

The good news is, you have 24 hours left to live.

The patient is like "wtf? That's good news?"

Doctor says: yeah. The bad news is - I forgot to call you yesterday.




But I actually like The Carpenters.

8. :rimshot:
How was the veal?

Lamb blood is messy and sticky. One is lucky if not washed in it.
