Yellow submarine stolen from outside Liverpool's Beatles Story
Thieves have stolen a model of the Fab Four's iconic yellow submarine from outside The Beatles Story. Attraction bosses are now appealing for the 5ft wooden sub to be returned to the Albert Dock venue. They will give £100 if the much-photographed model is handed back in one piece.

Why does this story amuse me so much?
Well, not nearly as much as when Paul's wax head was left on the train, but still.
(Another story on the Macca Head Fiasco)(LOL)
~*~*~
Okay. If a super-valuable Brian thingy goes missing, hey, don't look at me, okay?
*christine runs and re-checks the lock on her closet again*
Another link on the BeatlesNews.com site: Micky Dolenz says about his latest show: "I'll tell a story about meeting the Beatles in London in the '60s and going to some of the Abbey Road recording sessions..."
(See entire article here)
The eppylover so wishes she could get a message to Micky, arsking if he would please go into detail about his meeting with the then-heavily sideburned Brian ~ as proven by a few photos I have ( _HERE_ )
Probably he wouldn't want to disclose exactly what was actually going through his head at that point ~ Micky's got kind of a WTF look on his face there, but it might have been the drugs, LOL ~ however, in any case, anything (un-tawdry, of course) said about Brian from a different standpoint, trivia or not, would be so nice. :)

Your eppylover's unpaid job last Saturday was to act as chauffeur and photographer for Stephy & Bubbie's annual jaunt to JAFAX at Grand Valley State University in Allendale, Michigan. I'm amazed my 1994 Saturn didn't break down, as it has been threatening to do for ages. It sounds like a motorcycle in heat! We love our Saturn. Really. I would love to be able to afford maintenance on it!
While the kids were deliriously floating around in their manga/animé wonderland, most of the time was spent by Eppylover whining that she was bored and wanted to go home. LOL What a frickin' crabby old broad I can be!
I felt like I was shlepping around in a lame version of Let's Make A Deal (click for an old video on YouTube) (yeah, I realize that sounds double-lame, or at least redundant)!
My compromise with the cosplay was to wear a Michael Jackson hat and my faux Beatle boots.
( warning: Lots of LARGE images! )
After we got back to Grandville, we stopped in at the Rivertown Crossings mall to have dinner at TGI Friday's ~ in costume! They were amused. How we love their never-ending soup, salad and breadsticks lunch! Actually much better than Olive Garden's. My fave choices are their lovely broccoli cheese soup, honey mustard salad dressing, and their breadsticks, which are almost doughnut-like!
Okay, listen, TGI Friday's: you've got my address, please send my advertising $$$ revenue! Yeah, LOL, how I wish!
~*~*~
Another reminder: a long, drawn-out but (I-M-Humble-O) interesting entry
was posted yesterday on the Fifth Beatle Movie forum [ HERE ]
I hope to remain in an acceptable mental state and continue posting over there ~ so please keep checking the forum (I shall endeavor to keep putting links here when there's something new)~ because I'm not really wanting to double-post everything on LJ that's on the forum. The UBBC forum code is totally different than the HTML used here on LJ (and on websites) ~ so I'm forced to manually reformat anything I make there in order to post them here. Ugh, bummer.

Number One really gave me LOL-ammo to use on Stephy ~ who, although otherwise quite intelligent, has always been addicted to the Jon & Kate Plus 8 show. *groan*

p.s. I'm finally back on the forum.

Don't get used to it, folks. 
Well, it's a fluke that I turned on the computer twice today,
but... if I hadn't shared this 'toon I would totally burst.

It just occurred to me that there probably are quite a few of my pictures in old posts/comments that don't appear anymore since we moved to the apartment and switched from Comcast to AT&T U-Verse. Yes, it seems we lost many images which were saved to and linked from my old Comcast account, which now appear as naked .
Let this be a clue to everyone else ~ if you want your images to always show up, don't save to and link from your internet provider's server! Because you never know if you will have to change ISPs.
I don't think I would EVER use Comcast again, for anything.
Because ~~~ U-verse rocks sooo hard! ♥
Here's a random customer review I found that agrees with me
It was a difficult decision, because I am an AT&T landline phone hater from way back. However, the U-verse part is proving to be totally different, almost as if it's a separate company altogether.
Started using it in February, and... gawd! We still love it.
Anywho, to get back to the original thought, if I ever get the time and inclination again, I've gotta find and repair whatever photos have been lost to Comcast. There are probably scads of them, starting with my old MrBrianEpstein community posts of 2004-2005.
~*~*~
...AND NOW FOR SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT...
(WARNING: BAD LANGUAGE, YO)

Been very, very mixed-up lately. :(

Okay, this ongoing collection both amused and disgusted me.
These are REAL. Yeah.
Even though some of them do come across as mocked-up, they ARE real.
So ~~ Here's MY tweet for tonight:"Even though I freaked out at seeing a tiny pinpointy spider in the bedroom earlier, and sprayed the hell out of the room, I'm gonna try to sleep there tonight. It still stinks highly of Raid, but wtf."
Sorry if that doesn't hold a candle to leto75's "ok poop is coming out" ~ but you take what you can get.
And with that ~ good night.

Finally! Somebody expounds upon one of my major pet peeves.
Even though you could argue that The Fifth Beatle movie is not a documentary
~ and Brian Epstein's life DID have a sad ending ~
I can only hope our movie has more of a Gad Beck than a Harvey Milk feel.
The Gay = equals = Tragic train has run its course, IMO.
 Read it on The Forward website
( or read it behind this LJ cut )
~*~*~ ON THE SAME WAVELENGTH ~*~*~
I think you might enjoy this little trailer ~ I certainly did!

RE:  THIS recent beatlepics post!
Oh Van Donovan.
You are SO Van Donovan!
( I actually didn't see this post until about 5 this morning, and...... )
Y'know, whenever I see anything Eppy-related, the first thing that goes through my mind is
What would Brian himself think?
I always kinda automatically put myself into his head.
*head spins*
In this case, I have NO earthly idea! None! Nada! Bupkes!
I am at a f*ing loss!!! 
Hmmm... I can only imagine whether our publicly proper Mr Epstein would be amused or embarrassed or angry or bewildered or disgusted or, like most of us (excepting the disoriented eppylover), just plain ROFL-ing?
We do know that nobody could predict just WHAT he would take as a personal affront.
By the same token, he would often surprise you by joining in and being highly amused by a joke against himself.
Approving or disapproving? ~
~ Guess it would all depend on what mood he was in,
who else was in the room,
and...
ohhh of course...
what substances he was ON at that time!

In conclusion:
Noogies all around, and a hearty *smack* with a rolled-up newspaper to y'all for this one! LOL

I cannot believe it's been a whole week since the last post. I've been a bad, baaaad Eppylover.
It's even taken me a few days to reply to an email from Bill Covington (drummer with one of Brian's groups, The Rustiks) ~
Ehh. I'm just going through one of those screwed-up down-times again ~ the sleep schedule is randomly, irrationally skewed beyond belief. Somebody shoot me.
Anyway! It is Saturday once again ALREADY, so here we go.
King David to Beatles, a love affair with music

The Reform rabbi from Norwalk, Conn., also talked about the Jews who have guided, financed, and inspired rock music, including people like Brian Epstein ... Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y
In other blather, I am really, really seriously considering ordering this for myself. I really, really shouldn't ~ it's so expensive! ~ but it's been too many years of wondering and wanting... whew, since finally "breaking free" we have SO been spoiling ourselves. :(

Complete this phrase:
 "When the eppylover pokes her head out of her burrow.....
....You know you're in for six more weeks of ____blank_____!"
~*~*~
Bill Daily's opinion:
~*~*~
The toupée'd Shatner's take on all this garbage:
Hopefully he means "Number one with a ____blank_____!"
More likely he's saying, "Christine deserves a ____blank_____!"
(Sorry, this is the best I can do today ~~ it's obvious that lately the christine has been watching far too many old Match Game reruns from the 70's on GSN)
