On Tuesday, June 18, Julian, 61, — the son of Beatles legend John Lennon and his first wife Cynthia — marked Paul McCartney’s 82nd birthday with a special message on X (formerly known as Twitter).

“Hoppy Birdy, Uncle Paul! Only love… Jude x,” Julian’s caption read as he shared a video montage of himself as a child with McCartney.

Played alongside The Beatles’ classic “Hey Jude,” the first photo featured a younger McCartney sitting beside Julian on the grass.

The pair were then pictured walking together before the video switched to a snap of them playing on the shoreline by the sea.

The video finished with a photo of McCartney carrying a little Julian.

Actor Alec Baldwin recalls seeing Paul McCartney in a Yoga Class, a few years ago. Alec says he was both impressed and envious at how easily Paul did headstands, seemingly without effort. Alec thought Paul was showing off.

I would rather watch Paul McCartney show off in a yoga class than Alec Baldwin, any day of the week.

...off topic, but your Fleetwood Mac lyrics re. aging reminded me of these, from Bonnie Raitt:

I see my folks are getting on
And I watch their bodies change
I know they see the same in me
And it makes us both feel strange
No matter how you tell yourself
It's what we all go through
Those lines are pretty hard to take
When they're staring back at you
.
.
.
When did the choices get so hard?
With so much more at stake
Life gets mighty precious
When there's less of it to waste

("Nick of Time")

I was there long ago when the Beatles were named. They were throwing out possible band names when I looked out the 2nd floor window and said to the guys “Hey look, the new Beetles are in town”.
A Volkswagen car carrier was rolling down the street with new Beetles cars.

That Paul McCartney may appear to be a nice guy but he aced me out of royalties by changing the Beetles name to Beatles...
