I know this is last minute, but I just thought of doing this Friday and just got permission today.

Today is Ringo Starr's birthday. To those of you who are too young to know who he is, Ringo was the drummer for The Beatles (and don't you dare say you've never heard of The Beatles, or else I'll sick a Blue Meanie on you).

For his birthday, he's asked his fans to think/write/talk about peace and love on this day. So, I challenge everyone to write about and post a story or poem about peace and love today... since this is last minute, you can post that you are thinking about those subjects and post the story sometime this week. I think Ringo will accept that... he's cool

Cookies to anyone using phrases from any of his songs in the story or poem.

Driving down life's highway,
I have reached a very rough patch.
I didn't realize it was still under construction!
Mayhap I took a wrong turn?
doh!

We can use his songs for a songfic, right?

Yes, as long as the songfic is about love and peace. happy

I forgot to say, I've started a story, but couldn't finish it in time to post today (drew a blank in the middle), so hopefully I'll be able to finish it and post it by the end of this week.
