Ringo 2.0

 My wife, Jody, suggested we not give our new Collie the same name as his predecessor. "He needs his own identity," she said.
"He'll never know he's the second Ringo," I countered. "And this puppy feels like Ringo's back from doggy heaven with tons of energy."
"You and your Beatlemania," she said.
"No, it's not just Ringo Starr. It's that song Lorne Greene talked us all through in 1964:
'One day we rode the mountain crest
And I went east and he went west
I took to law and wore a star
While he spread terror near and far
With lead and blood he gained such fame
All through the West they feared the name
Of Ringo'"
