I thought it was because they needed a drummer and he had a drum kit or something which belonged to the college... something like that...? Am i on the right track?

In the song Strawberry fields forever, the line "nothing to get hung about" meant what?

I assumed that it always meant - Nothing to get hung up about, and lennon just fiddled with the lyrics to make them work.


I just want you to reassure him - talk to him, make him see the error of his ways. Then I'll hit him.

I stayed up late watching American History X and didn't fall asleep until 3.00. My boss is off sick so I've decided I'm incapable of real work today. (God I'm getting old - staying up late watching telly knocks me out for a day. I used to be a soldier.)
I'm going to think of a question now.

I've found I can still function if I go to bed late, but the heat (31) and humidity (62%) today are making it impossible. I'm sure it's actually cooler outside, but I've got the painters in and I have to make sure the cats don't make a run for it and find themselves a new home.

Ok, don't know if this is too easy or not. On the Sgt.Pepper cover, what do the yellow flowers which are in the shape of a guitar supposedly spell?

Call me old fashioned, but I thought the whole idea was to let someone else answer?
