Ringo Starr, abandoned, unneeded and unfed!
Ringo Starr was found today, alone, likely abandoned by his caregiver, and in very poor health due to lack of nutrition. His wife, Barbara Bach was not in their home and has not been seen for several days.
Ringo, formerly of Beatles fame, has gotten older since his Beatles days and has started to lose his hair. He blames that transformation in part on the dissolution of his marriage and eventual abandonment.
" She never sent me a Valentine this year, "Ringo said" or a birthday greeting." Officials also noted that Ms. Bach seemed to have cleaned out the couples mansion of all liquor including wine.
Ringo's daughter Serena noted, "The first sign things were bad between them was when dad showed up at our doorstep at quarter to three in the morning. Barbara had just locked him out."
Officials are still on the look out for Miss Bach, who, despite being a former supermodel, has aged herself, and is unlikely to find another mate at this advanced age.
Other than Mr. Starr's poor condition, the house was in complete disrepair. Fuses needed mending, sweaters lay half knit by the fireplace and weeds filled the garden.
"You've got to find her and find out why she left," Ringo pleaded with the police." We have a rental cottage on the Isle of Wightif that we use in the summer. She might be there."
This is not the first tragedy to have hit the Starr household in recent years. In 2002, Ringo's three grandchildren Vera, Chuck and Dave Starr were all killed in a freak submarine/octopus accidental collision which remains unsolved to this day.
The only clue as to Ms. Bach's reasons for leaving was a form which read:
Ringo? Yes ___ No __X__
In other Starr related news, Ringo turned 64 today July 7th, 2004. In lieu of gifts, Ringo would rather be 22 again.

I guess that answers the question then.

Technically, we won't know the answer to valentine question (or most of the others) until next year. He was 63 in February.

This doesn't make sense at all, but I really don't like Ringo at all.
I guess I just wasn't made for these times. |

| Well, I don't get the post, but I do like Ringo Starr's drumming. I think he's a really underrated drummer, people like to make fun of him because he was not a John or a Paul. Well who is? Ok, John and Paul were, but who else? Ringo Starr, damn good drummer says I. |

Will you still love me, when I'm 64?

| You mean his grandkids weren't really killed in a "submarine/octopus accidental collision"? |

Dead Milkmen - "Ringo Buys a Rifle"
"Paul was dubbing Ringo's drumming
John was dubbing Ringo's humming
People were starting to talk"
Obviously there were issues.

When I'm Sixty-Four
(John Lennon, Paul McCartney)
Lead Vocal: Paul McCartney
When I get older losing my hair
Many years from now
Will you still be sending me a valentine
Birthday greetings bottle of wine
If I'd been out till quarter to three
Would you lock the door
Will you still need me, will you still feed me
When I'm sixty-four
You'll be older too
And if you say the word
I could stay with you
I could be handy, mending a fuse
When your lights have gone
You can knit a sweater by the fireside
Sunday mornings go for a ride
Doing the garden, digging the weeds
Who could ask for more
Will you still need me, will you still feed me
When I'm sixty-four
Every summer we can rent a cottage
In the Isle of Wight, if it's not too dear
We shall scrimp and save
Grandchildren on your knee
Vera Chuck & Dave
Send me a postcard, drop me a line
Stating point of view
Indicate precisely what you mean to say
Yours sincerely, wasting away
Give me your answer, fill in a form
Mine for evermore
Will you still need me, will you still feed me
When I'm sixty-four

How fitting for this time in life, "Ringo" is fucked up.
I can't wait to tell my 88 (almost 89) grandmother (bobcia) about this notorious fact....
I've been listening to the John Lennon 4 disc anthoilogy A LOT!
I hope that's all right with you
But fuck it.
