Quite crowded too. Don't forget it wasn't only us in there but also our instruments, as well as a tiny pignose amp we used to carry around. Many a fine tune has been composed in that little room, let me tell you. In fact, at home I used to not only stand around with one leg on the toilet, but, if perchance I had to actually go, I would lug my guitar in with me instead of a book. I remember me dad used to say, "Paul, what are you doing playing guitar in the toilet?" And I'd say, "Well.. what's wrong with that, then?" You've admitted to being agnostics. Are you also irreverent? Paul: We are agnostics so there is no point in being irreverent. Do you believe in lunacy? Ringo: Yeah; it's healthy. But aren't you embarrassed by all the lunacy? Ringo: No, it's crazy. Paul, what do you think of columnist Walter Winchell. Paul: He said I'm married and I'm not. George: Maybe he wants to marry you?

Barbara, right now you're living every woman's dream: a rich, famous, sexy man has fallen in love with you. Barbara: More than rich and sexy, a warm, kind-hearted, generous, human being.
