Paul McCartney is one of the supporters of Record Store Day, an event on April 18, 2009 in support of Independently Owned Record Stores.
Quoted in the University Star of Texas State University, McCartney said: “There’s nothing as glamorous to me as a record store,” McCartney said. “When I recently played Amoeba in Los Angeles, I realized what fantastic memories such a collection of music brings back when you see it all in one place. This is why I’m more than happy to support Record Store Day and I hope that these kinds of stores will be there for us all for many years to come.”
But the most compelling thing about this was the article in the Charleston City Paper that said that "Paul McCartney will release six (only six!) acetates of one song at a secret location."
If you have any secret locations in your area, it is time to visit them.
If this is true, I think this would be the third rarest McCartney record of all time after the song called "Linda," (one copy) which he gave to his late wife as a gift and "Paul's 1965 Christmas Album" (four copies).
I could not find any mention of Paul McCartney on the Official Record Store Day web site. There was also no information about this on Paul's Official Web Site.
So what is the "one song?" Something tells me it will not be the song "Shoes."
If you catch any details, please drop me a comment or an email. Big thanks to the commenter who shared the link about this.

Yes, he is handsome. he is from Greece. Got curly hair and olive skin. She laughed her damn fool head off everytime he said something in bad english. The hugged a long time, and he handed me his luggage to carry out to the car. As soon as we got to her house she said that she was tired and was going to bed. they danced off together laughing.

"How do you think
Leedskalnin moved all that coral?
Have you been there?
i want to go"
I have never been there.
There is a broken down magnetic generator in one of the buildings.
It has a large wheel, which in its day, was used (spun) to
created an antigravity field effect around the area when it was turned on.
He would drive a piece of coral to the site in the back of a pick up truck. These were loaded onto the truck with all the cranes, grunting and groaning and difficulty you would expect.
However when the truck would reach the castle site, he would turn on the generator and float the stone off the back of the truck with his own hands. I don't know what kind of vehicle he used to transport the really large pieces with.
This is what I have heard from people who have evaluated the scene and figured out what he must have done.
As wikipedia mentions, he didn't allow people to watch him at work.
I have read the words of one person who helped him load the truck. When they got to the site of the castle, Ed made the fellow walk a distance away, and look the other way, covering his eyes while he unloaded the stone.
Apparently, if 'Mother Sekmet' is to be believed, the castle also
created a spot favorable to the establishment of a stargate.
are you thinking of DRINKING AND DRIVING?

i may have some more in common with Edward then. i really want to visit the coral castle, maybe then I can learn to float some massive blocks and SLAM THEM DOWN SERGIOS FACE!
"wow! i need some of that magic about now to float me over to Molly's house and find out what her and Sergio are up to right now!"
Well here's what I would suggest:
No banging on the door, or any of that messy stuff.
What you want to do is float through the window.
That should impress her, and leave Sergio up in the air as to what to do next.
Then you take her by the hand, and say "Come fly away with me, princess" as you and she jump out the window to the horror of her visitor.
He won't believe his eyes, and he'll think you both were possessed, so he'll run out of the house, all butt naked, while you and Celia gently land in a nearby field.
THEN you yell at her, and tell her that she's a ho!

"I'll stick with you baby for a 1,000 years, nothings going to touch you in these golden years... gold...
golden years... wop wop wop!"
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wop
Wop is an American English pejorative ethnic slur for an Italian. It is derived from the Neapolitan word "guappo" (often pronounced simply as "guap'" in the regional dialect), meaning a person who flaunts an overbearingly cocky and swaggering attitude.
In the past, it also could refer to someone following the guapparia, meaning bravery,[1] i.e., the ancient honour code of Camorra, a criminal organisation based in Naples and the region of Campania, which bears similarities to the better-known Sicilian Mafia .
In Italy, the term "guappo" is still used, often sarcastically, to describe those young native men who really try hard to act brave, play cool, court every pretty girl, and those that are arrogant to the point of inducing a fight.
It was brought to the USA by early Italian immigrants from the region of Campania, who named those suspected to belonging to the Guapparia “Guappi”, in a similar fashion the Sicilians used the term “Mafiosi”. Widely used in Chicago where most immigrants from Campania settled - one of its native sons Al Capone was a typical Guappo - it was confused by the non-Italian population to indicate people of Italian origins, similarly the word “Paesano”.
In Italy, the term "guappo" is still used, often sarcastically, to describe those young native men who really try hard to act brave, play cool, court every pretty girl, and those that are arrogant to the point of inducing a fight.
Our young american kid is going to get his *ss handed to him, first he is drunk. second, the greek dude already made him carry his luggage. Kid is a WIMP! Would you carry another man's luggage??
More likely, kid will go watch through the window as the greek stallion makes sweet love to molly all night long.
"meaning a person who flaunts an overbearingly cocky and swaggering attitude."

You got that right, my niece was going with the "perfect gentleman" for 3 years. I could go on all night about what that creep did to her. Gave her several venereal diseases. She may be unable to have children because of it. All the while, "Perfect Gentlemen" waltz's off into the sunset with nary a consequence. The "Perfect Gentlemen"'s parents defended him and said that the diseases came from HER! We were shocked to say the least to learn that she was sexually active with the "Perfect Gentlemen", but know for a fact that she has never been with another.

'Cause he gets up in the morning,
And he goes to work at nine,
And he comes back home at five-thirty,
Gets the same train every time.
'Cause his world is built 'round punctuality,
It never fails.
And he's oh, so good,
And he's oh, so fine,
And he's oh, so healthy,
In his body and his mind.
He's a well respected man about town,
Doing the best things so conservatively.
And his mother goes to meetings,
While his father pulls the maid,
And she stirs the tea with councilors,
While discussing foreign trade,
And she passes looks, as well as bills
At every suave young man
'Cause he's oh, so good,
And he's oh, so fine,
And he's oh, so healthy,
In his body and his mind.
He's a well respected man about town,
Doing the best things so conservatively.
And he likes his own backyard,
And he likes his fags the best,
'Cause he's better than the rest,
And his own sweat smells the best,
And he hopes to grab his father's loot,
When Pater passes on.

And he's oh, so fine,
And he's oh, so healthy,
In his body and his mind.
He's a well respected man about town,
Doing the best things so conservatively.
And he plays at stocks and shares,
And he goes to the Regatta,
And he adores the girl next door,
'Cause he's dying to get at her,
But his mother knows the best about
The matrimonial stakes.
'Cause he's oh, so good,
And he's oh, so fine,
And he's oh, so healthy,
In his body and his mind.
He's a well respected man about town,
Doing the best things so conservatively.

And if she asks you why you can tell her that I told you
That I'm tired of Castles in the Air

Just leave me to despair
Hills of forest green where the mountains touch the sky
A dream come true, I'll live there 'til I die
I'm asking you, to say my last goodbye
The love we knew, ain't worth another try
Save me from all the trouble and the pain
I know I'm weak but I can't face that girl again
Tell her the reasons why I can't remain
Perhaps she'll understand if you tell it to her plain
Oh, but how can words express the feel of sunlight
In the morning in the hills away from city strife
I need a country woman for my wife
I'm city born but I love the country life
For I can not be part of her "Cocktail-Generation Partner's Waltz,"
Devoid of all romance
The music plays and everyone must dance
I'm bowing out, I need a second chance
Save me from all the trouble and the pain
I know I'm weak but I can't face that girl again
Tell her the reasons why I can't remain
Perhaps she'll understand if you tell it to her plain
And if she asks you why you can tell her that I told you
That I'm tired of Castles in the Air
I've got a dream I want the world to share in castle walls Just leave me to despair

The words to the carol "Good King Wenceslas" were written by John Mason Neale and published in 1853, the music originates in Finland 300 years earlier. This Christmas carol is unusual as there is no reference in the lyrics to the nativity. Good King Wenceslas was the king of Bohemia in the 10th century. Good King Wenceslas was a Catholic and was martyred following his assassination by his brother Boleslaw and his supporters, his Saint's Day is September 28th, and he is the Patron Saint of the Czech Republic. St. Stephen's feast day was celebrated on 26th December which is why this song is sung as a Christmas carol.

I’m the guy you see driving down the street in a Ferrari with the top down, and you think to yourself, "What an ass!" And you know what? You’re right. But so what? Do you really think I value your opinion? I'm a rich jerk, so I couldn’t care less.

Record Store Day
Record Store Day was conceived by Chris Brown, and was founded in 2007 by Eric Levin, Michael Kurtz, Carrie Colliton, Amy Dorfman, Don Van Cleave and Brian Poehner as a celebration of the unique culture surrounding over 700 independently owned record stores in the USA, and hundreds of similar stores internationally. This is the one day that all of the independently owned record stores come together with artists to celebrate the art of music. Special vinyl and CD releases and various promotional products are made exclusively for the day, and hundreds of artists in the United States and in various countries across the globe make special appearances and performances. Festivities include performances, cook-outs, body painting, meet & greets with artists, parades, djs spinning records and on and on. Metallica officially kicked off Record Store Day 2008 at Rasputin Music in San Francisco on April 19, 2008, and Record Store Day is now celebrated the second Saturday every April. In 2009, Record Store Day took place on April 18. One band that planned to release vinyl records is Green Day, who announced on March 13, 2009 that they were planning to release their entire catalog on vinyl in 2009. The vinyl edition of their hit album Dookie was set to be released a few days before Record Store Day. In 2009, there were plans for Record Store Day celebrations in the U.S., Canada, Japan, the United Kingdom and Australia. Record Store Day is currently managed by Eric Levin, Michael Kurtz, Scott Register, and Carrie Colliton. The event is sponsored by NARM, the National Association of Recording Merchandisers.

What I think is that the F-word is basically just a convenient nasty-sounding word that we tend to use when we would really like to come up with a terrifically witty insult, the kind Winston Churchill always came up with when enormous women asked him stupid questions at parties
