I suspect he could be on this board using a different name. Why not give us all a hello?

He is absolutely too busy. He has a new child to attend to with Heather. New borns are time absorbers. Of course, maybe there is a computer in the nursery, and between feedings and during naps......no, no, no.......he'd post thru a friend of a friend of a friend, totally anonymous 4th hand-----and, he has, no doubt, plenty of more important things to do than to "troll" through here---------but Paul/Bill visiting these sites? Well, its a surreal idea. .......Sometimes the internet can be a surreal place. PID and PWR look surreal to most visitors, don't you suspect? Odd, unheard of, no way, far-out notions; "Fellini's Big Top.com"is how it must look to Guiseppe Average. And besides, as Vermouth and others have commented, we've had some real "carnival" moments at these sites. Circuses are fun. For a minute or two. Or, could the "car crash" analogy make this site a curiosity?; (when folks happen to see a ten-car pile-up, most people just can't look away.......) He had probably seen some of these places a few months ago. I think now he would find them tiresome and avoid them. He ain't here, y'all. But, if he ever does tunes in, then I say to him, Hello, sir. Mr. McCartney sneaking by for a visit here is not something I deem likely; but, hmmmmmm----if he did, well, it sure makes you want to be polite, though, doesn't it? Manners, respect. What have I said that's hard on the ears? Probably a bunch of stuff. Shoot-----I wish you hadn't brought it up. I feel embarrassed. For real. I REALLY thought it may have been he was way back when there was a certain 'billyshears' posting on another site, but we'll never know--------- [img src="http://galeon.hispavista.com/akostuff/img/Dunno2[1].gif"]

Personally, if a lot of people thought I were a "double", I'd find it very interesting and go to everyone online discussing it.....maybe he's just sick of it by now. I don't know.

That's assuming you aren't a replacement. If you were, you might be more inclined to avoid any reminders. Faul has shown some interest in playing around with the PID rumors on some of his albums. That's probably smarter than ignoring it altogether.

Billyshears.. it did generate some excitement, but my first reaction is guilty until proven innocent in regards to claims like that, or strongly implying that you are someone special/Faul/govt. agent/etc.
But if he's watching, I hope it's because it's a quality product we have here... ;D

You know, I think he (whoever that might turn out to be in ANY event) would be safe enough here. We're all so accustomed now to a swirling set of possible scenarios that he, in effect, could come on and just sit in like any of the other "contestants." Since we sometimes are vying for "points" as it were, and I mean that in a positive (but teasing) way, we wrangle what we find until we glean something we consider notable from it, then we pass on to another question. ("Points" above means "points of reasoning.")
Its a PWR version of the 'Hollywood Squares' on-line.
;D Paul could be the "secret" square on Friday nights, like Paul Lynde used to be sometimes.
I'll take Rose Marie to block.
{I mean no flippancy. The subject has its seriousness, in fact solemnitude. But, if my attempts to inject humor offend or are just in bad taste, someone set me straight. (Otherwise, I do confess my corny streak!)}

Revolver, which clues on the albums are they? Not clues per se, just acknowledgement of the rumors. There was one cover called something like "Paul is Live" with him crossing the Abbey Road crosswalk being pulled by his sheep dog. BTW I was almost tempted to sign up here under another username and pretend to be Faul just to freak you out. But it wasn't worth the effort.

Eggy, answer me one thing----------do you have rubble ears?
And, just exactly, how do rubble ears help you, if they are rubble, that, is?
Do you clean them in the regular way, or do you sandblast them? The ears, of course?

From the booklet:
"John joked that the name Beatles came in a vision from a man on a flaming pie, coming to us... you are the Beatles with an A. I was riding with my missus, thinking of lyrics, searching for a ryme with 'sky'... 'bye'... 'cry'... 'pie'. The story came back and I thought 'Ooo, flaming pie."
I think there's more info on that in "The World Tonight" DVD. It's about the making of Flaming Pie.

more allocations...well, its a good spring, after all, wouldn'tcha know.
Flaming is a great concept, a great poetic word. As a visual metaphor of life, or even spirit, flames captivate the eye with their liquid, effortless dance. In our world, we percieve the active, vibrant, results in terms of heat and light. Flickering, changing with each tiny part of a second, a dynamic manifestation, ongoing energy in a vision of ever changing appearence, yet fire is the external evidence of work going on in the unseeable microworld of the burning subject. We can't see where the exchange of energy REALLY starts or ends. We enjoy the benefits of a controlled fire, meanwhile the turbulent, chaotic condition of the elements escapes us. A million chemical reactions, bondings, catalytic exchanges, mergers, and hostile atomic take-overs are going on under the range of the human eye. All we see is cumulative energy trade-offs; we think about how romantic the table, how delicious the meal, how exotic the desert, how inviting the leaves, how putrid the trash, how warm at the camp-site, how soothing the cigar, how strong the steel, how fast the car, how solemn the ceremony, how deep the cave, or, unfortunately, how much we love the song, "Freebird!" (Lighters count too.)
Them little molecules is workin' their little shells off for us all the time and we don't so much as say, "Thank You." Everybody sing, "If I could talk to the molecules, talk to the molecules....."
It was going so well till the last paragraph. Living with ADHD. You just never know what you'll think of next.
And my point was? Oh, yes. Might there be images and poetic references continuing all through the McCartney catalogue, that trail back in time? FP, am I correct in saying, that from your post, some lead back to the earliest days? Maybe there are poetic styled references or "cyphers" that been alluded to that we don't see? "Free as a Bird" points at that, perhaps..........
So, we as fans didn't see all the "bonding", and "broken shells", the "catalysts", the "conversions", and the personality "chemical reactions" going on inside the Beatle Blaze. We just saw the Flaming Pie......................

*drools*.................................................................................... Right, um, yeah, John did have that vision in the very early days of the Beatles. 1960 probably. But I don't know how to respond to everything else you wrote. ;D

where are my pills, my PILLS!....................Nurse tells me its past time for them---------they were right here------wait, they must be in the medicine chest---------oh, yes, here they are.(struggles with child-proof container, how appropriate, finally just busts plastic bottle with a handy hammer.....pills a kimbo!!!.. just need two, pops them, grabs Dr. Pepper, swallows spastically. Sits quietly on floor of hallway for 3 minutes, breathing returns to normal, pulse regulates, eyes turn from red to hazel, strange were-wolf like manifestations recede completely, voice restores to the standard nasal whine.)
NOw, FP, about that last post of mine. Well, the long and short of it is, that
a. "Flaming Pie", as a reference is associated with an early Lennon "vision" (his claim). I then construe that there maybe many such long-term allusions in the later solo efforts of all the Beatles. (Perhaps not Ringo, so much.)
b.) A rambling diffuse rhapsody on the idea of "flame."
c.) An off topic referral to Dr. Dolittle. Rex Harrison is following me around in a little green car. I know he is. I've caught him several times. I may get a restraining order, but its been real hard to prove to the authorities. Rex hates me because I know everything all about.......what, 'scuse me, my nurse is calling me again, hello, Nurse Diesel? Yes, I took the red ones. Oh, Doc wants me to take the blue ones now? Do I have to? OK.
Nurse thinks I need my anti-delusionaries. But I know better. Surely I know you all realize that when I tell you that Rex Harrison is sitting up in a tree opposite my window with a pair of night vision goggles, well, you know what to think. You know exactly how to consider my orientation to reality.
I'm gonna take a Granola Power Bar out there to him in that tree. By now, he's gotta be gettin' hungry. I'll tell you what he says when I get back.

Somehow I just have to think that becoming involved in surfing around different forums is just not Paul's cup of tea...but then stranger things have been known to happen. www.edgarwinter.com had a forum on it until about 6 months ago where Edgar and his wife Monique were actually administrating and chatting with their fan base. It was great fun but he took the forum down over a dispute with someone on a fan site...it was all pretty lame, but the point is that Edgar had more things to worry about than running a forum and just didn't want the headache which insued over the dispute from the other site. It was great fun while it lasted, though, and he occaisionally announces live chats on his site. Other than Edgar Winter, I am not aware of any other mainline artists who do this stuff, but then I'm sure there probably are others.
