I know I can always
look up more; compose better; try to find more connections while preparing my host work. 

We can keep up this prolegomena a long time. Beatles/Stones, who knew?  
How about Stones as preterites, so to speak? Beatles were always the Saved.

Digressions are part of it all as well.
