Wish Paul had explained that 'I Was' sign


Just got the Blu-Ray disc of this and love it and seeing all the cut scenes that didn't make it into the final version finally explains alot of stuff from the comic strip booklet that came with the original LP way back when.

For instannce, the panel that shows Aunt Jessie playing the drums (that scene was cut) or Happy Nat's dream (that scene got ditched too) but apparently it was too late to change the artwork so the just left that stuff in there.

But I do wish Paul (in his commentary track) could have addressed the sign that he had on his desk in the Recruiting Office scene that says "I Was" (to be completely accurate it says "I (You) Was" with the (You) being much smaller for whatever reason.

Maybe this is a reference to "I Am The Walrus" later in the show, I don't know.


Perhaps Paul was saying that He was the Walrus? John later said that in "Glass Onion" anyway.
