Perplexed - you are the most precious man. I LOVE your sense of humor. To be honest, I have a bit of a struggle with my weight. There are very few people on this earth who don't. SO WHAT ! You don't judge a person by what they weigh. You judge them by who they are inside. My significant other is at least 50 pounds overweight. SO WHAT ! I love him anyway ! As far as you & Abbey go, your personalities MORE than make up for any physical flaws you might see in yourselves ;D

I am the willow, and I weep too.
Hey did you hear about Heather & Faul's new album? Mahogany and Ivory. Already in the discount rack at any Coconuts near YOU!

I could get a permit for "oversized load......." I bet I could fetch $2.99/lb. at Winn-Dixie's............. Ha-ha-ha, good one Paul Bearer. In any event , I've spent the last year or so "caught in the net".............. ;D Hey, the net broke and I got to swim away If I were worth my weight in gold, I'd be worth more than Faul ;D ;D ;D You think if I could get a plasticine girdle I could change my shape into a perfect 16? Tons, that is

But what are "Plasticine....Hahs'-sez" John sang to us of Plasticine Hahs'sez. They just don't say hard american "rrrrah" in Britain. Why? I need to know. And right this minute. What is plasticine? What is polythene? There are no such things, are there? John just made these words up, didn't he? Well, didn't he!?!?!?!?! We need a John Lennon Rock-a-saurus just to catch a clue. Plasticine - a synthetic material resembling clay but remaining soft; used as a substitute for clay or wax in modeling (especially in schools) Polyethylene or polyethene is one of the simplest and most inexpensive polymers. It is a waxy, chemically inert plastic. It is named thus because it is obtained by the polymerization of ethylene (ethene). It is also known as polythene [Chiefly British] Ða contraction of the nameÐand even more simply as PE. The ethene molecule (known almost universally by its non-IUPAC name ethylene), C2H4 is CH2 = CH2, Two CH2 connected by a double bond, thus: image:Ethene.png In the polymerization process of ethene, the double bonds of the monomers are broken to allow additional single bonds to form amongst the carbon atoms, thus a macromolecule is created.

Actually the material used by the make-up artists is GELATINE. A special gelatine for realistic temporary prostheses.

I am a Beatl-a-saurus, but need to listen to the song which is hard to do with me at work and the Beatles at home. How about horses? Will listen to the song and get back to you this evening until another "a-saurus" answers you

Well, yes, I certainly know that John was singing Placticine Horses------I just got all caught up in his breathy, British pronunciation there.
Well, maybe, in the aunt's dream sequence in MMT, the nightmare with the horse laying there, or what seems like a horse head, maybe that is a placticine horse. A clay horse, a model horse.
Maybe auntie is having a Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds type of dream. Maybe there is more of the "Lucy Sky Diamond" lyrics IN the dream sequence. Time to have a look.
Maybe there is a reason for this plasticine hawss. Maybe there is a reason for a Polythene Pam. Are Tussaud's Wax dummies made from this material?
Chemically inert plastic.
Double bonds. Four molecules.
CH2 = CH2.
A macromolecule.
Thanks for the info, Lucy, all, etc.

I certainly know that John was singing Placticine Horses In what song was that? Not to be pedantic, but you do realize the lyric in Lucy, is "plasticine porters," yes?

Oh, right then. I see. Thank you for the correction.
Porters, not horses.
I am so embarrassed. Carry on.

Whoops! This Beat-a-sarous is slipping. You're right, of course, it's porters. What can I say...was trying to remember the song and work at the same time. And if I started singing, the place would clear out in one minute Thanks for the correction

You'd think that as he was performing, his nose/ears would get all sweaty and slip from where they should be. Or he'd wipe of the sweat and his nose would be on his cheek ;D ;D ;D ;D

Full legal evidence! I don't want to get into trouble again ( ) but I have a problem with the above photo being used. That isn't faul's sillouette, it has been cut out from it's original background by the graphic artist who created the sgt pepper artwork (and they did a sloppy job. If you look at george's hair in some of the other pages, it's more obvious that they've been very carless with the scissors. Nothing against the other photos posted, SK.

SK if you look in your stg pepper cd booklet, at george's hair on page 9, 10,13,15, 21, (please everyone do have a look) it is very obvious that the photos were cut out from their original background with scissors or a knife. (badly) I don't agree that the noses look the same, anyway, sorry

Nose tips aren't the only false thing about him.
I still feel like a man: a full grown man. billy McCartney who has taken to wearing fake fingernails to help him play the guitar.
