I wonder if this will go anywhere: It is well-known that each Beatle has a unique and profoundly revealing character-type, which is why we all have, or are required to have, a favorite. The game: provide a related group of four which can be categorized either in canonical order of John, Paul, George, and Ringo, or if a .jpg is linked–strongly encouraged–in imitation/homage to the graphic grouping of their first album (John, George, Paul across, Ringo down). I’m not sure yet if the group name should be guessed or supplied. Goofiness allowed. Commentary and kibitzing by subsequent posters encouraged. Game rules status: fluid. Eg: Trotsky, Paul Newman, Matisyahu, Woody Allen 20-Century Jews ---
