The image of 'The Walrus' is a Scandinavian death symbol made famous by John Lennon's references to it in several songs written between l967 and l970. What has made Lennon's interpretations so mysterious and confusing is this, he originally referred to himself as 'The Walrus' in the l967 composition "I Am The Walrus". But in another song released in l968 entitled "Glass Onion" he specifically said: "I told you 'bout the walrus and me, man. Don't you know that we're as close as can be man. Well here's another clue for you all. The walrus 'WAS' Paul." People have always interpreted these words to imply that Paul, the bass player of The Beatles, was the walrus. But John did not say that the walrus 'IS' Paul. He specifically said the walrus 'WAS' Paul. Could this not imply that someone else who had first been the bass player of The Beatles before Paul took on that role was the true WALRUS! Did you know that there were originally five Beatles, not four... The fifth and often forgotten Beatle was named Stuart Sutcliffe... He was the original bass player of the Beatles. Paul (who originally played guitar) only became the next bass player after Stu left the band in l960. Did you know it was Stu Sutcliffe (along with his girlfriend Astrid Kircherr) who came up with both the name 'The Beatles' and the unique hair style which would be the trademark of their revolutionary image. The founding member of The Beatles (John Lennon) and Stu Sutcliffe were close... very close... best friends as a matter of fact... So if I told you that Stu once convinced John that he had the unique ability to see into the future... Wouldn't you find that strange... Since John Lennon and Stu Sutcliffe would both meet with a tragic, pre-mature death... Did Stu know? Did Stu tell John? (Or were there reasons why he would not want to warn him) If I told you, that despite strong opposition from John, Stu chose to leave the Beatles on DECEMBER 9, l960 and never saw John again... Wouldn't you also find that very strange, since exactly 20 years later the headlines in almost every newspaper in the world on the very same date of DECEMBER 9, l980 would read: "JOHN LENNON SHOT TO DEATH!" Consider this... Shortly after leaving the band, Stu would mysteriously die on April 10, l962. Years later the very person who had taken his place as the bass player of the Beatles, Paul McCartney, would also be rumoured to be 'a dead man'. People would accuse John Lennon of starting this hoax and perpetrating the mystery by placing subtle clues and messages throughout his songs and all over The Beatles album covers... Shortly after the energy of this entire death scandal surrounding Paul had subsided, Paul would ironically announce that he was leaving The Beatles! AND, BELIEVE IT OR NOT, THAT ANNOUNCEMENT WOULD ACTUALLY COME ON THE PRECISE ANNIVERSARY OF STU'S DEATH – A P R I L 1 0th l 9 7 0 ! Could this bazaar coincidence between Paul's departure from The Beatles and Stu's tragic death explain the mystery behind all of those rumored clues and evidence about Paul being 'a dead man' ... If Paul was supposed to be 'A' dead man... (as in 'A' specific dead person other than himself) then those words could now have two distinctly different meanings! Maybe they were never intended to imply that Paul himself was dead. Perhaps they were intended to say that the bass player for The Beatles (Paul McCartney) once was Stu Sutcliffe (now a dead man).....and that Stu's date of death would prophesise the date that Paul McCartney would one day chose to bring about the death of 'The Beatles' (as a band) * (see footnote) Could Stuart Sutcliffe possibly have had visions of the future and known all of this before his own perfectly timed demise in l962. Could a single human brain be capable of intuiting such incredible prophecy... If so, surely no human being could subliminally manipulate the circumstances of their own life and death to fit so precisely into the events of the future... Or could they..? The title song of The Beatles final album 'Let It Be' reached number one on APRIL 11, l970... the very day after Paul had announced that he had left the band! 'Let It Be' is a song about Paul being visited and comforted by a spirit from beyond the grave. Ironically, John Lennon last went to visit Stu in Germany on APRIL 11, l962! It was the first time he and The Beatles had travelled to see his best friend since Stu had left the band in December of l960. So while we happen to be on the topic of spirits from beyond the grave... Is it also a coincidence that Stu suddenly died of cerebral paralysis... (his brain was expanding, literally growing too large for his skull)... THE VERY NIGHT BEFORE JOHN ARRIVED! Is that what provoked John to address his audience and make the following remarks on the evening of April 11, l962, while on stage for the first time since hearing of his best friends abrupt death earlier in the day: "Stuart Sutcliffe was a very special human being... and a remarkable man. He once told me that he had the ability to see into the future... and I for one now believe that Stu was telling the truth!" If Stuart had indeed travelled a distant road into the future and back into the day of his death, then the title of The Beatles final single release would lend itself completely to the puzzle: 'The Long And Winding Road' was the final song to ever hold a number one position for The Beatles. It is a song distinctly about someone being led back into the past and 'a pool of tears, crying for the day'. Its final week at number one would be the very week that one Stuart Sutcliffe was born June 23rd, 1970. Do you see the pattern here? The first song released from their final album reaches number one, the week Stu died. The last song ever released by the band has it's final week at number one, the week Stu was born. Stuart leaves John and The Beatles, on the very date after John will be pronounced dead in 1980. John and The Beatles return to Stuart, on the very date after Stuart has been pronounced dead in 1962. AND THE BEATLES CEASE TO EXIST ONCE AND FOR ALL ON THE VERY DATE THAT STUART SUTCLIFFE DIED !
----------------------------------------------------------------- (Footnote) *Perhaps all of the death clues surrounding Paul McCartney were also intended to say that Paul would be intrinsically connected to both the past and the future foreshadowing of death throughout his life... consider the following examples: Who could have known that Paul's own lovely wife Linda would one day die on the precise date that Paul had chosen to release his very first solo album in l970. That album was simply called 'McCartney' which is very appropriate since the very first song on that record was entitled... 'THE LOVELY LINDA!' If that seems hard to fathom, consider this... Paul had deceived everyone and stated that he was in California preparing Linda's funeral arrangements so as to protect the privacy of the actual location where she would ultimately be laid to rest, Tucson Arizona. And ironically, the final song on the Beatles very last record (which was released almost simultaneously with McCartney's first solo album!) begins by telling someone to... "Get back to where you once belonged" AFTER LEAVING TUCSON ARIZONA FOR CALIFORNIA! And Lastly dear reader, I must insist on leaving you with the following precise numerology chart of the word 'Paul'. Simple primary numerology is based upon the following principle. Every letter in the alphabet is represented by a number from 1 to 9. Using the following table one can see how the pattern repeats itself throughout the alphabet.

We apply these numbers to the letters of one's name. First add together the number values of the vowels of the word. Then on a separate line add the number values of the consonants together. P A U L 1 3 / 4 (April) 7 3 / 10 (10th)
