6. Happy Birthday George
As a Beatle fan I am profoundly sorry that the joy you gave to us caused each of you so much personal pain. I hope you are at peace and you are truly missed.

8. Much as I love John,
George was always The Coolest Beatle onstage. Our Boy was serious up there behind that bigass Gretsch double cutaway--the very model of precision and taste in every note. "It's alright for the others to lark about onstage, but I have to be ready."

And he was. His notes will ring forever.

:loveya:

10. George Harrison makes me want to believe in "heaven".
He was such a sincere seeker in life, that for
him, I hope he found something.

12. I remember that day.
Just by coincidence I'd happened to put on one of my Beatles shirts before I went to school.

Still, I suspect that he left behind a clone... I've seen pics of his son, and there's no way that boy has only half of George's DNA.
