Who on earth is the girl behind this site, you ask? Read on...
Of importance (well, not really) to this site was a day in 1995 when I saw "A Hard Day's
Night" and became an instant Beatlemaniac. Things were never the same again, and this site is one of the results.
Of
course, I had the misfortune of being born too late to actually experience Beatlemania in the '60s, and this is a reason for
setting up this whole site - a small way for me to pay tribute... and hopefully, a place for other fans to remember The Beatles
and the fact that they are the best band ever.
If you're curious as to who I am, read on... it's kept mostly Beatle-related,
since they're the reason for this site and since I'm such a Beatlemaniac, anything else would be pointless. ;)

all such a joke." - George Harrison
