The George Harrison memorial tree has been killed by...wait for it....beetles. Yep. And if that isn't funny enough, check out this comment from some dude named, Scott..
"At least it wasn't killed by a bunch of Byrds. Plus when it died they could made some Doors out of it. It could have been smashed by a Rolling Stone or eaten by Animals. I have never seen a tree crushed by a Led Zeppelin, but that would be cool. Just think if it did live, a nest of Eagles could be in it by now. Should have planted it in Boston. I would make the Journey, but being a Foreigner it is to far. I'm sure they will work the Kinks out and plant another. It would have been nice to get a couple Styx from it. Where were the The Police when all this happened? Oh yeah did those beetles Sting? YES!"
Can you add anything here? (I'm sure George would appreciate it.)

Poor George, he's kinda jinxed.
He had a great sense of humor though, 'specially when he was young. I think he'd be laughing at this.
Beetle bones n smokin' stones.
This was such a good story. George and John were joke-sters. I still shudder to think about George fighting off an intruder and being stabbed in his lung. While his wife hit the bastard with a lamp or something big. I still think that's what killed him, as he developed lung cancer and died in a few short years. He never really recovered. And all this after John was killed. So strange they had no better protection. I think we cov'd this on another post. I loved George and his song 'Here comes the sun" was what my daughter walked down the aisle to at her fall garden wedding. It made people cry. Not me. So weird. People feel such a connection to those songs, I guess.
