    Great job as as always. Wha't Tom Hank's connection?

    Tom Hanks was a very close family friend of The Harrisons.

    Did Paul just come in from begging on the street corner? Why in the hell cannot Paul learn how to dress? The man is a fashion disaster!

    At any rate, my rant is over. Glad to see George get a star.

    Although Paul did look like he slept in his clothes and didn't comb his hair it looks far better than Eric Idle's suit.

    Great pictures of George's star award. Scroll down for slide show. Then also, go to next article and next article etc. More slide shows.

    Unless there just weren't any photos of him, interesting that the one we all thought was the closest to George, Ringo, wasn't present. And the one George probably had the most head-butting with, Paul, was. But, I'm sure Ringo wanted to be there, and for whatever reason wasn't able to be...so, this post is probably pointless.
    It just makes for a strange image...Paul there, Ringo not.
