Beatles seriously considered reunion, he says
(NEWSER) - Paul McCartney says he has called time on a pot-smoking career that started when Bob Dylan passed him a joint in 1964. In a Rolling Stone interview, the former Beatle says he's giving it up because of his daughter—not one of the three now in their '40s, but 8-year-old Beatrice. "I smoked my share. When you’re bringing up a youngster, your sense of responsibility does kick in, if you’re lucky, at some point," says the 69-year-old dad, who spent 10 days in a Japanese jail in 1980 after a half-pound of pot was found in his luggage.
