    That's a great quote you chose from the middle. I bet it's like that for many people who have fame or big success at a young age.

    I love the Beatles. Ringo always seemed to be the goof-ball of the group, but i bet he wasn't really.

    I have to be honest and say I'm not a major Beatles fan. I love some of their songs, they're great, but I don't go nuts about them. I like the sound of the F56 though. I hope you enjoy this one! Thanks for sharing :) I hope you have a great week!

    This sounds interesting! I don't think I've ever read anything from Ringo's point of view.

    I can't remember the last time I read a "grown up" book, but I would read this one. Thanks for the heads up.

    Good you've moved into Instagram!

    I took April off, but I'm back! Moved the 56's to my pop culture blog, because it is bigger, and has tons of contributors :-)

Scooby Doo: The Sword And The Scoob

AVAILABLE ON DIGITAL NOW AND DVD MARCH 23! RATED F 72 minutes AMAZON An evil sorceress transports the gang back to the age chivalrous knights, spell-casting wizards, and fire-breathing dragons. While there, Shaggy unwittingly pulls out Excalibur from a nearby stone to cut a block of cheese and now no one is sure who the rightful ruler is.

REVIEW: It was weird starting off with a He-Man lookalike, Thunder the Barabarian), until I realized a character from the film was watching the cartoon in the airplane. Still, it was kind of cool to reminice about two cartoons from my childhood. So many great actors bring the film to life! What a fun story it was too! Although
