Last Friday was the 79th birthday of Paul McCartney. It seems like only yesterday he was wondering what it would be like to be 64-years-old and now he’s almost hit the 80 year mark!
In honor of this fab birthday, I’ve got six links to online articles about the former Beatle and leader of the Wings band and there’s also a video link to a classic SNL skit with Paul and Chris Farley.
And then there’s the MBIP Coming Attractions as to what’s happening on the blog next week. Yeah, yeah...yeah!
