Unfortunately, Lucy passed away last week.

I do hope you get the Trivial Pursuit game for your birthday, but please be warned that it's hard! My biggest problem is finding someone to play it with me! There's a good online quiz at http://www.bagism.com/cgi-bin/quiz.cgi that you can enjoy in the meantime. It should prepare you for the game!
I hope it's hard, because I love spouting off random and minute Beatles trivia. Also it would be the one game I'd actually enjoy playing! LOL!

I'm pretty sure Sony BMG gave the rights to Paul and Ringo, but they probably also gave the rights to Olivia Harrison and the Witch (aka Yoko Ono).

I have all the Beatles albums (the remastered versions) and I also have a few of those old records (Sgt. Pepper, and other stuff I don't really remember).

It's intense! I don't have the game in front of me, but I remember the one question dealt with Ringo's house number where he grew up! I was happy that I knew the neighborhood!

First off: Happy Birthday John Lennon, we miss you.

I haven't bought any of the new CDs yet, but I did buy Magical Mystery Tour on DVD. I've never seen a Beatles Trivia game, it sounds like fun. I love Beatles trivia too. Sadly, I don't have Beatles Rockband, but I am taking guitar lessons.

Have you tried the Bagism quiz yet? I actually found a mistake on one answer! I have to think about it, but the quiz gives the correct response as one Beatles, but an interview of John gives another. Thank you for remembering his birthday!

Oh, I've only seen the Beatles Trivial Pursuit at Best Buy, but it will probably be available everywhere soon. Magical Mystery Tour was the first Beatles movie I ever saw, but I now see why A Hard Day's Night is considered the Citizen Kane of pop films. (But MMT is so much fun!)

I have tried the Bagism quiz and parts of it are brutal! I can't remember my exact score, but I need to brush up on my solo years trivia. Thanks for sending me the link.

I always celebrate the Beatle's birthdays, although maybe I should have said "Happy Birthday to John and Sean Lennon!"

ETA: I found out last night that there's a street not far from my hometown called "Abbey Road," how cool is that?
