Happy Birthday to Paul...

It being Paul McCartney's birthday and all, I should write something. After all, the Beatles are one of the only rock groups I can stand (and many people my age find them awfully dated, I suppose...), and though I've never really checked out McCartney's solo work, I sure like the Liverpool Oratorio.

Actually, though, there's really nothing to say, because I'm not a big Beatle expert. I do, however, find it fascinating to read about the whole "Paul is Dead" thing. Looked it up on Wikipedia once and found this great site: Officially Pronounced Dead?. So that's the story. I am of the opinion that Paul never died and that it was a very strange rumour. Publicity stunt? Crazy fans? Ah, well, we may never know.

But Paul is alive, and his birthday is today, and he and his cronies gave us some very cool music. That's a reason to be happy!
