Wow, that's incredible!  And scary, too!  The only time I've seen the Beatles and TMNT mentioned at the same time was in Phishtar's "Apocrypha."  That made me laugh to no end!  And well, with them becoming musicians in the Coming Out of Their Shells Tour, jeez, that was just another parallel thing for them.   By the way, GW, pretty email with the purple butterfly!  Dunno if this will show up in the message boards but I can see it in my Outlook Express!  Nice!  K, bye!   Brinatello ----- Original Message ----- From: GreenWillow To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, June 18, 2002 8:29 PM Subject: Re: B-day to the old/young chap!       Hey! It just hit me like a ton of bricks!  Since The Beatles are a lot like them Turtle guys we discuss all the time, I can keep this on-topic!  Paul McCartney, or as we think of him as the Leonardo-type, turned a milestone of 60 today!  Just think, in four years, we can start singing "When I'm Sixty-Four" to him.  lol!  Hope he and his new bride, Heather, are doing fine and have a very happy life together.  Okay....bye!             ~Heh heh...well, *I* knew it was McCartney's Birthday, and yeah, I was thinking about the TMNT/Beatles paralleles today. One good obsession deserves another. (The entire essay is up on my website)           Actually,  I was thinking about how lives turn out in the end. We know E & L originally planned to take Dave Sim's lead (Cerebus) and follow their characters lives through to their deaths.      So now check this out; the story thus far:            Leonardo remains the last one actually practicing the "art".            Raphael is shot dead by a madman outside his home in NYC.            Donatello too young dies of brain cancer.            Michaelangelo tries his hand at acting, winds up playing The Little Conductor on Shining Time Station, getting drunk daily til he joins AA..... (to be continued...)           ....I dunno about you guys, but I think there's something to this....                                 ~GW ____________________________________________________   IncrediMail - Email has finally evolved - Click Here
