I spent nearly all of my high school years listening to the Beatles. They were what was in my head before David Bowie (and at 13, I can assure you, there wasn't much else).

I'll miss George's dignity in the face of all the Beatles madness, and his insistence on paying attention to the meaningful things in life.

Apparently the Feds locked up Italians during World War II as well as the Japanese...

(and they put them in camps in Missoula, MT, right next to where my father's parents lived in Stevensville. My mother's parents were Italian immigrants, actually . . .)
