Celebrity Jeopardy 1/19/23
Brit Bits for $900 (it was also one of the Daily Doubles and the guy bet $2200)
On a live webcam you’ll frequently see people re-creating a famous Beatles album cover as they cross this London street.
What is Abbey Road? (he answered immediately!)The “celebrity” was Brendan Hunt, one of the co-creators of the show “Ted Lasso.” He was really smart and won the game by a lot of money (it all goes to charity)

Just saw a commercial that was playing the original “Imagine” and it said Imagine The Possibilities on the screen. Then it said PassItOn.com

On Ozzy and Jack's World Detour they were traveling through Georgia and were about to go to an Elvis museum. Ozzy says "We're going to see Elvis' wart? It's like seeing John Lennon's f*&%ing skid mark!" Jack: "Which probably would go for a lot of money!" Side note: The women who owns all the Elvis stuff said that she was offered $1,000,000 for the wart! She didn't say how much she paid for it, just that it was "a lot of money."
So it's true! Ppl like Elvis warts and all

My reply liking your post here about Elvis was removed. I don’t think the Mod knows what the definition of a rim shot is:
rim·shot
/ˈrimˌSHät/noun
noun: rim-shot
1.
a drum stroke in which the stick strikes the rim and the head of the drum simultaneously.It is used in comedy to accentuate when something is funny!

Name That Tune 1/25/23
Clue: Simply put, former Beatle knows how to bring holiday joy.
I immediately knew without hearing a note that the tune was “Wonderful Christmastime.” Neither one of the contestants got it even after hearing the maximum of 10 notes. The one guy came close, but just said “Christmastime.”

Real Time With Bill Maher Feb. 3, 2023
“There was once a different musician named John Lennon who wrote a song called Revolution. And people who didn’t really listen to it thought it was a rah-rah call for Revolution. No, it was the opposite. The lyrics are ‘You say you want a revolution, well you know, we all want to change the world. But if you go carrying pictures of Chairman Mao, you ain’t gonna make it with anyone anyhow.’ There’s a guy who understood how good intentions can turn into the insane arrogance of thinking your revolution is so f-ing awesome and your generation is so mind-bendingly improved that you have bequeathed the world with a new kind of human. You’re welcome.”(Right before all that he was talking about the banjo player from Mumford & Sons who tweeted that he liked a book that apparently wasn’t on the “approved list’”
and he had to delete the tweet, take time off from the band and issue an apology.) The 21st century version of “The Beatles are bigger than Jesus!”

That seems as unlikely as the rumor that Yoko never heard of The Beatles!

I’m confused…it was YOU who made the “So it’s true! etc.” comment! (in response to my Elvis’ $1,000,000 wart post) Scroll down to 18 days ago to see your response.
