Something

Something - The Beatles

“I think that’s about the best track on the album, actually.” — John Lennon

“George’s ‘Something’ was out of left field. It was about Pattie, and it appealed to me because it has a very beautiful melody and is a really structured song. I thought it was great.” — Paul McCartney

“It was beautiful. George was blossoming as a songwriter. With ‘Something’ and ‘While My Guitar Gently Weeps’ — are you kidding me? Two of the finest love songs ever written, and they’re really on a par with what John and Paul or anyone else of that time wrote. They’re beautiful songs.” — Ringo Starr

I’ve repeatedly said that for people who have as little in common as Joanne and myself, we have an uncommonly good marriage. We are actors. We make pictures and that’s about all we have in common. Maybe that’s enough. Wives shouldn’t feel obligated to accompany their husbands to a ball game, husbands do look a bit silly attending morning coffee breaks with the neighborhood wives when most men are out at work. Husbands and wives should have separate interests, cultivate different sets of friends and not impose on the other … You can’t spend a lifetime breathing down each other’s necks … We are very, very different people and yet somehow we fed off those varied differences and instead of separating us, it has made the whole bond a lot stronger. —Paul Newman

My meals for this weekend will consist of:

  • Prepackaged salads for evening meals (2)
  • Prepackaged cereal cups for morning meals (2)
  • Personal size bottles of milk for cereal (2)
  • One bottle of iced tea
  • 2 bags of popcorn and 5 crackers are also on hand if needed.

Am I on a diet, you might ask?  No.  I am beginning my personal challenge to go 2 weeks while spending $0.00 on food.  All of my meals will come from the cafeteria (which is not open on weekends, FYI) off my prepaid meal plan. Aside from the popcorn and crackers, the above list is everything I managed to horde (aka, buy) from the cafeteria today.

I am going to use ALL of that money in my account, or so help me Oprah….

leemrsmn: One night President Obama and his wife Michelle decided to do something out of routine and go for a casual dinner at a restaurant that wasn’t too luxurious. When they were seated, the owner of the restaurant asked the president’s secret service if he could please speak to the First Lady in private. They obliged and Michelle had a conversation with the owner. Following this conversation President Obama asked Michelle, “Why was he so interested in talking to you.” She mentioned that in her teenage years, he had been madly in love with her. President Obama then said, “So if you had married him, you would now be the owner of this lovely restaurant,” to which Michelle responded, “No. If I had married him, he would now be the President.”
