CHICAGO (FOX 32 News) -
One more thing about Paul McCartney turning 70.
For those of us who grew up with the Beatles, the idea of Paul being 70 years old just doesn't compute. But I guess old is the new young. To mark the occasion, Time Magazine's "light box" website posted 70 iconic images of Paul. "The Legend Rocks on" is the title of a new book on McCartney being published by the magazine.
Sir Paul celebrated his birthday in private on Monday. He's preparing for the London Olympics opening ceremony July 27. Paul will be the closing act that night.
By the way, we resisted the temptation to play "When I'm 64", but it should be noted that when Paul wrote that song he was only 15. And sadly only two of the beetles made it to age 64.
We'd love to hear from you. Go to Facebook.com/BobSirottOMT to view the One More Thing archives and leave your comments. Leave a short, snappy one, make us think, enlighten us, or amuse us and it doesn't matter if you agree or disagree -- you'll have a good chance of getting on TV.

Over the weekend, the Tom Cruise sci-fi thriller "Oblivion" was number one at the box office. But the movie I'm talking about wasn't even in the top ten.
