You guys, this is important. Almost more important than the $10/$20 deal at the Body Shop last week. Movie candy, afternoon work snacks, nyquil, nail polish! The possibilities are never ending! jacquesofalltrades: Here’s a Living Social deal that I can definitely find a use for — $10 for a $20 CVS gift card. Click for yours!

I’m sitting in my office anxious for my bank to release my 2011 mutual fund and interest statements so I can hurry up and file my taxes. Today has been marked on my calendar for like two weeks now. And it hits me that I’m really an adult. Or am I just desperate to get my cash back from the IRS? Either way, I’m a little weirded out by my interest in doing my taxes this year.

The Beatles’ Rooftop Concert: The Last Gig

“On a cold day in January 1969, The Beatles, who hadn’t played live since 1965, took to the rooftop of the headquarters of Apple Records, located at 3 Savile Row, in central London. And there they played an impromptu last gig, much to the delight of Londoners on nearby rooftops … and to the chagrin of the police.

At the time, The Beatles were recording their final album, Let It Be, and the rooftop show let them run through various tracks from that last effort. Above, we have them playing “Get Back,” accompanied by Billy Preston on the keyboards. This longer clip shows them segueing from “Get Back” to “Don’t Let Me Down.” Next you can watch them jam through “I’ve Got A Feeling,” “One After 909,” and “Danny Boy.” And finally “Dig A Pony” and another version of “Get Back.”

Famously, The Beatles’ live legacy ends with the police shutting down the show (it was a noise violation, you know?) and John Lennon uttering the immortal words, “I’d like to say thank you on behalf of the group and ourselves, and I hope we passed the audition.” That’s going out in style…”

Today’s bit of trivia.

world-shaker: I’m actually supportive of this idea. I can’t see it taking off at a college, though. Those quarters are for laundry. We had one of those at the middle school I went to in SC. Did not help the office supply hoarder lurking inside me.
