Beatle's Home Infested With Beetles

The answer to one of rock's great naming questions may well have been definitively answered this past week when a researcher poking around in the garden of John Lennon's boyhood home found four rare species of -- you guessed it -- beetles.

Britain's National Trust, which now owns the Liverpool property, announced that a survey revealed the presence of a wasp beetle, which mimics wasps, along with three species of ladybird beetles as well as wood mice and even several kinds of frogs. Lennon, who lived in this house, belonging to his aunt and uncle, from the mid-'40s through the early '60s, is said to have written a slew of early Beatles songs there -- none of which, as far as we can tell, were overly amphibian-influenced. Then again, the bumper vegetable crop of 1961 might've, er, planted the seed for 'Give Peas a Chance.'
