“Will you still be sending me a Valentine? Birthday greetings? Bottle of wine?..Will you still need me? Will you still feed me when I’m sixty-four?” Tomorrow – July 14 – is my 64th Birthday and I want to have my party here at SDMB. You are invited and I do hope you will come – newbies, Silent Eyes That Read, Guests, old friends, people who don’t like me, people who never heard of me, kids, older people, bored people, bizarre people, normal people and especially Fools on the Hill. I really confess to liking presents though. Would you mind bringing something from a Beatles song or even from the lives of the Beatles? You don’t have to wrap it at all. You can wear it, drag it behind you or have it flown in. I have the Yellow Submarine tanked up and ready to provide rides in the crystal clear lake out back. Just order whatever your are hungry for and summon a Doper you would like to meet perhaps. I’m beginning the party a day early for those who have to adjust their schedules because of the weekend. I’m hoping that Vera, Chuck and Dave can make it! I’m over by the Yellow Submarine – the woman eating lamb pasanda and waving at you. I’m wearing a yellow T-shirt and jeans…No, luv, the sub is on the left… Welcome! ---

Will there be shortcake topped with the bounty of Strawberry Fields Forever? I’m not sure if I’ll be here tomorrow, but I hope to be one of the people who come and go, and [stop to say hello.](http://www.sing365.com/music/lyric.nsf/Penny-Lane-lyrics-The-Beatles/E3F5C9971741CE6148256BC20014277E) ---

Hope you don’t mind, Niece **Zoe** , if we came a bit early. Your aunt wanted to avoid the traffic. Dang, honey, if you don’t look stunning in that dress. Don’t mind us now, we’ll just sit quietly in the corner. Much love, Uncle Albert ---

[QUOTE=Leaffan] My God, they were good. Weren’t they? [/QUOTE] I’ll say. That tune is one of my favorite “turnaround” tunes like two gillion others from _Heart and Soul_ and _Blue Moon_ to _All I Have To Do Is Dream_ but the 3-part harmony on this one is too fine. Please note that that was done in 64, so it has double significance. ---

Sorry, but I’ll be unable to attend the party tomorrow. I’ll be in San Francisco for a DopeFest, followed by a birthday party. Sort of a Magical Mystery Tour, if you will. But I’ll be sure to raise a pint to your health, and maybe wash it down with a Savoy Truffle. Cheers, and Happy Birthday! ---
