“Everybody’s talking about bagism”
Shea and I went to “Yesterday” as my annual birthday movie tonight and it got me thinking about how long I’ve been a Beatles fan (hint: since I was a kid but it blossomed in university) and how long I’ve been using computers (hint: since I was a kid but it blossomed when I […]
