Although, as far as Beatles go, I was and will always be a George man.<BR/><BR/>As far as "Fledgler's Log" goes, I kinda had "Smithers Jones" by the Jam and the Who's "Happy Jack" in the back of my mind. But I can hear the Ringotude in there. And I'll tell Mr. Z you dug it.

So m...Of course the Ringo comment was a compliment! So much so that I've played this for everyone who approaches my computer (although "Washclosh" is still my all-time fav.) <BR/><BR/>But admit it, it's got a bit of "Octopus's Garden"or "Life goes on" or "With a little help from my Friends" up in there. Especially with the question and response in the refrain. I mean, I know Ringo wasn't the shiz-nizzle of the Beatles, but he offered some catchy tunes we all enjoy. This is catchy, and I enjoyed it. There.<BR/><BR/>If you don't prefer Ringo, rest assured that he'll be more of a Lennon when he hits adolescence.<BR/><BR/>Either way, fucking talented, man.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10130250.post-44337735631187294232008-02-28T13:20:00.000-05:002008-02-28T13:20:00.000-05:00There's something beautifully mysterious about the...There's something beautifully mysterious about the fact that the question of what exactly a Fledgler's Log is. That's between a bird and his dog.
