Wow i agree with Standee

I've always said the wrong Beatle got shot.

Lenon should have been the only one spared IMHO!

I hope your other half reads this thread before Christmas so she gets chance to take back The Beatles rockband that she's got you

She hates them as much as I do!

Agreed 100%. The man is so far up his own backside I'm surprised anyone can hear what he says.

Don't particularly like McCartney..but I like the Beatles..some classic stuff.

why do media types allow vegetarians a platform to spout their crap?

George Harrison? the man was a genius on the guitar. Lennon and McCartney could only dream of writing songs as good as Here comes the sun and Something.

Also Lennon was the worst of the lot at spouting his mouth about what we all should do/believe in.

Don't forget My Sweet Lord......oh wait a minute.....

Because they're pretty harmless.

If God didn't want us to eat animals, he shouldn't have made them out of meat.

Anyway - Paul McCartney sits his kids down and says, "I've got some good news and some bad news. The bad news is your mum has died. The good news is we can go to McDonalds for dinner".

Im going meat free on a friday at home games

Will just have a stadium pie

agree with most of the above posts,, macca " shut the little hole in your face ,and sing us some old un,s" ,, bono the phoney flew his hat half way round the world so he could wear it at a concert. and as for lennon, he wanted peace, he wont get it much quieter now.

otherwise ok?

agree , those of a certain age remember Mcartney as a clever sod from the off. True devotees sing the praises of the late great George Harrison. i wouldnt call him a "genius" on the guitar . He was a top bloke and highly respected by artists of his time add to that list What is life, brilliant.

Time for a Q&A session with The Very Sensible Doctor: (a very wise Chinese physician)

=redQ: Should I cut down on meat and eat more fruits and vegetables?

A: You must grasp logistical efficiency. What does cow eat? Hay and corn. And what are these? Vegetables. So steak is nothing more than efficient mechanism of delivering vegetables to your system. Need grain? Eat chicken. Beef also good source of field grass (green leafy vegetable). And pork chop can give you 100% of recommended daily allowance of vegetable product. Ice Cream even better – everything Cow eats in one package!

=redQ: Doctor, I've heard that cardiovascular exercise can prolong life. Is this true?

A: Your heart only good for so many beats, and that it...don't waste on exercise. Everything wear out eventually. Speeding up heart not make you live longer; it like saying you extend life of car by driving faster. Want to live longer? Take nap.

=redQ: Should I reduce my alcohol intake?

A: No, not at all. Wine made from fruit. Brandy is distilled wine, that mean they take water out of fruity bit so you get even more of goodness that way. Beer also made of grain. All people who don’t drink unhappy – happy people live longer so drink more. Bottom up!
=red
Q: How can I calculate my body/fat ratio?

A: Well, if you have body and you have fat, your ratio one to one. If you have two bodies, your ratio two to one, etc.

=redQ: What are some of the advantages of participating in a regular exercise program?

A: Can't think of single one, sorry. More people killed running on street than lying on couch. My philosophy is: No pain...good!

=redQ: Aren't fried foods bad for you?

A: YOU NOT LISTENING! Food are fried these day in vegetable oil. In fact, they permeated by it. How could getting more vegetable be bad for you?!?

=redQ: Will sit-ups help prevent me from getting a little soft around the middle?

A: Definitely not! When you exercise muscle, it get bigger. You should only be doing sit-up if you want bigger stomach.
=red
Q: What about food additives?

A: You want to complain about something for free? If it added – must be better – like fuel additive!

=redQ: Is chocolate bad for me?

A: Are you crazy?!? HEL-LO-O!! Cocoa bean! Another vegetable! It best feel-good food around!

=redQ: Is swimming good for your figure?

A: If swimming good for your figure, explain whale to me..
=red
Q: Is getting in shape important for my lifestyle?

A: Hey! 'Round' a shape!


For those of you who watch what you eat, here's the final word on nutrition and health. It's a relief to know the truth after all those conflicting nutritional studies.

1. The Japanese eat very little fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.

2. The Mexicans eat a lot of fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.

3. The Chinese drink very little red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.

4. The Italians drink a lot of red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.

5. The Germans drink a lot of beer and eat lots of sausages and fats and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.

CONCLUSION:

Eat and drink what you like.

Speaking English is apparently what kills you

For once i agree with you.

2 points here. McCartney says he wants this to cut down on meat production, mainly to reduce the number of cows supposedly producing excess methane gas. OK then clever clogs, what do we do with all these worthless cows then? Set fire to them? That's really gonna help isn't it, you tool!

The other one is, if we all buy into it and eat veggie food for one day a week, surely our methane production would far out weigh what the cows produce!

McCartney should stick to what he does best, counting his millions and courting self important prosthetic wearers.

Did he, or did you just make that up?

He was speaking about the GHG contribution, derived from meat production



No, we eat them.



See first answer above, you seem to have some problem identifying where GHGs come from



Yes to the first point, the second was unnecessary and irrelevant

If Macca is blaming cows, shouldn't we eat them even faster to try and get rid of them. When we've got through all the cows...and that'll take some time, we should start on horses cos there's alot of them and a fair bit of meat on them.

So cutting up animals into smaller bits causes excess pollution? OK then.




I'll drink to that.




So scientists who have claimed excess methane production is contributing to global warming are wrong then? I will bow to your superior knowledge.




I will, however, not bow to your sense of humour bypass

I've a lot of time for Paul McCartney and his music. He has always had a bad press although this is often of his own making as with this story.

If he wishes to be a vegetarian then good luck to him but personally I love a nice rare beef fillet or lamb steak. I think his international jet setting is probably doing more damage to the environment than me tucking into a juicy sirloin.

BTW John Lennon although another great songwriter could be a particularly nasty piece of work and was certainly not the working class hero he had people believe.

Where do we get this free meat from on Monday...Just fancy a cheeky little bit of fillet steak.
