How I met the Beatles
It's a long and winding road to get to that answer, but some friends and I had come together because we each had a free ticket to ride the roller coaster 'Across the Universe' at the new theme park; 'Helter Skelter' which had just opened yesterday. The 4 of us...Jonathan the Tax man, Richard the Egg man, Paula the Meter Maid and Georgette... (well, she does something) had just come out of the 'Magical Mystery Tour' where you take a virtual ride around the entire park in a yellow submarine and gotten in line for the roller coaster. Who should get in line right behind us but The Beatles. They were in disguise, but the accents gave them away...not to anyone else...just us. Paula whispered to George; "Closer...let me whisper in your ear..." and she let him know that we knew. To make a long story short...we spent the day in the life of the Beatles...I offered to let them drive my car to their hotel but they said they were waiting for the van to come and take them to see a guy named Ed...we spent 10 minutes telling them how great our day was when John finally shouted...LOOK...you say hello and we'll say goodbye...and there you have it! (This is how I answered a question regarding the first time I became aware of the Beatles on Facebook...I just couldn't give the standard 'The Ed Sullivan show answer)
