Dear Peirce'n,
maybe in Ringo's case it's not so bad,
but he never really had anything to say in the
first place.
Do you think John Lennon would ever
do anything like this? I don't.
Sometimes people are weak. They succomb to
greed. Like,say...George Carlin. Personally,
I will never look at him in the same way. He is no
longer challenging the status-quo.He is part of it.
I believe it is impossible to be a sincere social
critic, and make a few bucks selling
contradictory bullshit, at the same time.
Your noteriety, everything you've said and
stood for, shouldn't be so readily cashed in.
People stand for things. In my opinion.
Sincerely,dirty tee
