Re: Paul who?
Shouldn't it be "Sir Paul McCartney"?

Re: Paul who?
I agree.
As for people not knowing who McCartney is, I will admit I don't know the vast majority of hip hop singers or rappers, so I would not be surprised that some of the younger listeners don't know who someone whop had his hey day 40-50 years ago is (I'm not sure when his last hit was, but a lot of his pop recording career ended with the 70s). If I were to put it in perspective, t would be like me knowing someone who recorded in the 30s when I was in my music listening prime. Sure, some may be making a joke, but I'm sure others don't know who he is, or only have a vague recollection of hearing the name.

Re: Paul who?
ringo is the Italian one, isn t he?
Re: Paul who?
Now, now, there's no "h" in wop (which was an acronym for without papers as I recall).
I don't think Ringo was Italian either, even though his name ended with a vowel and he wore a lot of cologne.

(fwiw, Eeyore was always my secret favorite - even if I also adored Tigger)

Laugh, Tigger. She nailed you both!
(I still have my very first Tigger -- from when I was a baby - he's one of my all time faves)
