Story is a couple of years old, but I never heard it...

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/northamerica/10409709/Beatles-fans-reunite-to-recreate-Ringo-Starrs-famous-1964-photograph.html

In 1964 a group of high school kids skipped class to go see the Beatles. They didn't get into the concert but while they were driving Ringo pulled beside them and snapped their picture. When they told their friends no one believed them. Fast forward 50 years and Ringo publishes a book of his photographs. They were in it. They reposed the shot as they look today.

Nothing is as effective as homeopathy.

I'd rather listen to an hour of Abba than an hour of The Beatles.

Five friends who were photographed by Ringo Starr during The Beatles' first trip to the US almost 50 years ago are to finally meet their idol, after being reunited and recreating the drummer's snapshot.


There are six in the original photo.

Turn me on dead man.

The Confederate soldier was peculiar in that he was ever ready to fight, but never ready to submit to the routine duty and discipline of the camp or the march. The soldiers were determined to be soldiers after their own notions, and do their duty, for the love of it, as they thought best. Carlton McCarthy
