Well, I'm back! I was on vacation. Miss me, or didn't even know I was gone? lol. At this point, I am guessing it is the latter, but that is okay for I entertain myself more than most!

Paul McCartney’s 5 Greatest Albums Outside of the Beatles   Okay we all love the Beatles and I think that it is very hard to deny that McCartney as a whole has probably the single greatest collection of songs under his belt than any other musician in history. Almost every album he has done since the demise of the greatest band in history has had something very special to offer. Iconic songs that we either love and can name within a couple of notes or songs that we are at least very fond of. However, despite all of this greatness, I believe there are five albums in particular that stand out about the rest that hold a level of greatness from beginning to finish and here there are in the order that I feel they should be in.   5) Venus and Mars   Despite this album only having one major top forty single, ‘Listen to What the Man Said,’ this album was full of wonderful little gems.

  Paul McCartney’s 5 Greatest Albums Outside of the Beatles So yesterday I started a countdown of Paul's five greatest albums outside of the Beatles and named Venus and Mars number five.

CHAPTER 13: THE GIRL I LEFT BEHIND ME/Three Strange Days   Melody had gone through a lot in the last few months and she needed Christmas to be a very certain way, so I played along with that and on the big day we spent a little time at her house and a little time at mine; however, we also went to her ex’s parent’s house for Christmas dinner. Not only did she stay close with her ex and his kids, but she also stayed very close with his parents and his sister, so we spent our very first Christmas together with her ex-husband and his parents. Again though, I did realize this was weird and highly unorthodox; however, I just chose to look at the situation as being rather amusing. There was one point during dinner where I was on the side of the table against the wall and couldn’t freely move about, and then her ex-husband (who was sitting on the other side of the table) got up and asked me if he could get me another drink. I accepted his offer but deep down inside all I wanted...
