Ringo turns 70!!!

[dhermann1]

Tomorrow, Wednesday, July 7th, Ringo Starr will hit the big 7 - 0.
All my fellow boomers will go "Gulp!", but there you are. Ringo is 70. He's asking all his fans at noon tomorrow to point heavenward and say "Peace." Not too much to ask.

Wee Ringo. The last to join the Beatles, the first to be born. And now, at 70, the best looking one of the bunch!

Happy Birthday Richard!

Sweet Ringo. He seems like such a kind soul. And remember, John Lennon would have been 70 this year, too. Don't you wonder...

Pete Forever! Ringo Never! Pete Forever! Ringo Never! Pete Forever!....

Reporter: Are you a mod or a rocker?
Ringo: Um, no. I'm a mocker.


Man on Train (complaining about the loud rock music on the transistor radio the Beatles have on): Don't take that tone with me! I fought the war for your sort!

Ringo: I bet you're sorry you won!

"He's very sensitive about his drums. They loom large in his legend."

Happy Birthday Ringo!

Happy Birthday Ringo!
Remember Ringo's birthday request, make a Peace towards the sky at noon.
And I still have a hole in my pocket

 

[Mid-fogey]

That's...

Happy Birthday Ringo!
Remember Ringo's birthday request, make a Peace towards the sky at noon.
And I still have a hole in my pocket

..."I've got a ole in me pocket."

Here is a good song: (In the pop goes the weasle tune)

"My daughter needs a new phonograph,
She wore out all the needles,
Besides I broke the old one in half,
I hate the beatles!

Ringo is the one with the drums,
the others all play rythem,
It shows you what A boy can become,
without a sence of rythem!

The boys are from the british empire,
the british think they're key,
if that is what the british desire,
GOD SAVE THE QUEEN!...

(Here is the song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QgKCQJfAVgI )

Pretty funny

I saw Ringo play a couple of weeks ago. Old men playing rock music in public is sad.
