Title: Starkey relation?
Post by: moonbeam34 on May 26, 2009, 03:51:36 AM
This is probably a long shot, but I am curious about something. In Julia Baird's book, she mentions a Starkey Family who lived not far from her and her sister Jackie. These Starkeys are more than likely related to Ringo. The question is does anyone know how?

I'm sure if they were related to Ringo, she would've mentioned it in her book.

I have read him saying somewhere that he's not really a Starkey, it's a name on his mothers side.

I got it!   The "Paul is Dead" thing was a real hoax (instead of a fake hoax) to distract us from the real mystery: Ringo does not exist and has never existed.  They didn't just get rid of Pete Best--they eliminated the drummer completely.  I'm not sure what the faux drummer "Ringo" is.  (He's not a Starkey, we know that much--as for Parkin, I'm at a loss for comprehension).  "Ringo" must be something like the Boson Higgs particle (if that exists).

I read in one of the several Beatles books that Ringo's paternal grandmother was first married to a Parkin,
who left either because of death or divorce, and that she later married a Starkey, which was the name taken
by his father. His Christian name is Richard Starkey Jr.


Ringo and Maureen gave their daughter Lee the middle name of Parkin.




As for any kind of hoax, total rubbish!!!!

No no think about it. Adamzero nose his stuff. We know The Beatles were pioneers, so maybe "Ringo" was an early attempt at robotics/CGI. But damn if they could get the face right.
Remember "Ringo" "blowing a fuse" not so long ago? I think age is making his harddrive go all floppy.

When "Ringo's" remote control failed Paul had to resort to the old hand-up-the-arse method of control.
"Say hello to all the nice people Ringo!"
"hawoh wice weefel"
Easy.

Well dang it! I can't change my username!! lol I didn't know about the Parkin thing... interesting... I recently wrote a paper over the "Paul Is Dead" hoax for my English class, I might do one over the mystery of Richard Starkey/Parkin and Adamzero's theory, if that's okay with him. lol
