Starr Asks Fans Not To Write

October 20, 2008 | ISSUE 44•43

Saying he no longer has time to respond, drummer Ringo Starr announced that he would not accept any more fan mail or objects to be signed after Oct. 20. What do you think?

But it's not just Ringo. I've been writing to George Harrison, and he hasn't responded, either.

Oh, man, then I better hurry over there with this subpoena.

Well, that's the end of the Ringo Starr trade. At last I can sell my station wagon and not have to sit in the hot sun at flea markets all summer anymore.
