I was two at the time. I might have been plopped in front of the set and don't remember. Ed Sullivan was still on the air by the time entered grade school, and I remember the set always being tuned in to that, so I'm guessing my parents watched it, but I never thought to ask them. Equally weird, Patricia.
I was in High School... Loved The Beatles and my favorite was RINGO ! still is. He is just a bit goofy. According to a friend who met him at a business dinner he is quiet nice. cheers, parsnip
parsnip, here's part of a comment I left on Patricia's blog, The Polygon:
"One final thought. When I was a kid--before high school and before I fully understood the band's dynamics--I assumed Ringo Starr was the most important Beatle, because he seemed to play the lead in all the movies!"
In order to keep the hucksters, humbugs, scoundrels, psychos, morons, and last but not least, artificial intelligentsia at bay, I have decided to turn on comment moderation. On the plus side, I've gotten rid of the word verification.
For some reason Ringo always looks kind of dour. (When asked once if he's really that sad all the time he replied, 'No, that's just me face ... ')
ReplyDeleteThe rest of us evolved from monkeys, notacynic, whereas Ringo evolved from a bassett hound.
DeleteJust kidding, Ringo, in the slim chance you're reading this.
