After posting a recent message on a proposed Houdope, the first thing I wanted to do was let Ringo know, as he is the biggest asset in organizing Houdopes. I tried to e-mail him through the SDMB, but his e-mail has been blocked. I did a search of his posts, and the last one was on March 4. March 4? Ringo has never left the SDMB for three weeks.
Is he out of town on vacation? Was there confict with the Mods? Is he OK?
Did you try calling him on the phone?
According to his profile, he was around just today.
I do not have Ringo’s phone number. Although I have known him for about 3 years, I don’t even know his real name! Thanks, QED. I only checked his last post. He has reverted to lurker status. Hopefully, he will see his name on the post titles and come out of his hermitage.
Jeepers cripes, I thought this thread was saying Ringo Starr was dead. Whew!
And on a more on-topic note, I’m glad Ringo (nee’ beatle) is still here, even if he’s only lurking at the moment.
*Don’t leave me this way
I can’t survive I can’t stay alive, without your posts Oh baby
Don’t leave me this waaaaaay *
I’ve been wondering where he is too. But I can understand taking a break. Sometimes life gets a little busy. I’m glad he’s still here too.
Whew! Don’t scare me like that. I can’t imagine this board without Ringo here; any more than I can imagine a Houdope without him. He even has come to SA for two dopefests. I hope he comes out of hiding soon.
purrplebear, hoping Ringo becomes a Charter Member soon…
Me, too!
I’m just glad this thread is in MPSIMS, not in Cafe Society. That would have given me a heart attack.
If that had been the case we would only need Paul to die and the Beatles would be back together.
Ringo still hasn’t posted since the 4th. But the board is indicating he’s been active, presumedly reading threads. Maybe it’s a computer glitch (I once got locked out where I could read but not post).
Ringo, if you’re out there, let us know. And if there’s any other Houston dopers who can call him, I’ll email his phone number to you if you don’t have it.
Jeez Louise! Can we get a mod to change that thread title? I also thought we were down to one Beatle. :eek:
I thought it meant that the poster Ringo was dead. I didn’t even think about the Beatle!

I’ve sent him an email letting him know of your concern.
I’ve just let him know about the thread. He should be along shortly.
Robin
You can check out any time you want,
But you can never leave…
Sorry, folks, I didn’t mean to cause any alarm. Between a slightly funkadelic computer (I can see you sent me an email, lieu, but I can’t open it - I’m shopping) and life being a little different of late (and whose isn’t from time to time?), I haven’t been around for a few weeks.
But the search parties found me. I suspected lieu’s email was related, and I just communicated with MsRobyn, who alerted me to this thread.
Yes, Road Rash, we need to get that HouDope up to speed. I’ll check out that thread later tonight.
And thanks to all of y’all for checkin’.

Hey, howcum Ringo is a Member, and everyone else is a Charter Member? This is unfair! Wheresa mod? I wanna complain!
Unless Charter Member is better than Member, in which case, I’m fine with it.
Yipes! The omnipresent sigs are apparently back again.
