Unfamiliar with this week's tune? Hear it here
1)
In this song, Ringo stumbles upon a photograph that reminds him of a
lost love. Are there any photos displayed in the room you're in right
now? Nope.
2)
While there are approximately 180 published songs credited to
Lennon-McCartney, this is the only song written by Harrison-Starr. When
you think of Ringo's old band, the Beatles, what's the first song that
comes to mind? "Hey, Jude."
3)
George and Ringo wrote this song while on a yacht in the South of
France. They, and their wives, had just attended Mick Jagger's wedding
to Bianca in Saint Tropez and decided to take a little holiday together.
What are your vacation plans for 2025? Within weeks I shall be off to Hollywood. I can't wait!

4) At 5'8, Ringo was the shortest Beatle and the only one with blue eyes. How tall are you? What's your eye color? 5'1, green eyes.
5)
Ringo gave his first wife, Maureen, a one-of-a-kind birthday gift.
Frank Sinatra recorded "The Lady Is a Tramp" with special lyrics,
written just for
her. Do you have anything that's personalized? (It could be a monogram
on a scarf, it doesn't have to be as cool as a gift from Frank Sinatra.) Just a drawer full of notepads and return address labels from charities.
6) Ringo appeared as Mr. Conductor on Thomas the Tank Engine. He recorded the narration for the entire first season in just a week. Tell us what you did last week. I reset the sale table at the card shop (which I enjoyed because I feel I'm adding value) and got a MMR vaccine (which I didn't enjoy). Remember when we believed measles was eradicated?
7) As a boy in Liverpool, Ringo loved watching American westerns. Do you like cowboy movies/shows? I like TV westerns better than movie westerns.

8) In 1973, when this song was a hit, former President Lyndon Johnson died. Who was President when you were a kid? LBJ in grade school, Nixon in junior high and Nixon and Ford in high school.
9) Random question: When you woke up this morning, did you know the day and date (before looking at your phone)? The day? Yes. The date? No.
I was wondering if you were going back to the film festival. I have not been to Hollywood since 2019 when we went with our son and daughter in law. We ate at a place called Philipe's. I also went to the Museum of Tolerance in Los Angeles in Jan. 2020. I like to watch TMC. We watched Gone with the Wind last weekend that we had recorded. I need to see if I need the MMR, but what is the S?
ReplyDeleteShingles?
DeleteTypo! Fixed it.
DeleteEnjoy your trip!
ReplyDeleteI think we all have address labels from some charity …
I just had an MMR immunity test done (I've had two vaccines for it so it showed I'm fine to travel with hubby to NM!). Hollywood is not a place I've ever wanted to go although i'd love to shop in Beverly Hills! I've been to San Franciso and we spent a wonderful week there doing all the touristy things. I'm definitely a northeast gal!
