The Man Who Briefly Became a Beatle
Once a Beatle: When Ringo was ill with tonsillitis, he substituted on drums for 8 concerts & lived a superstar’s life for 10 days. But Ringo has returned… Now Jimmie Nicol sits alone in the Melbourne airport, waiting for the plane that will take him back to obscurity (15 June 1964)
Amidst the deafening screams of Beatlemania in 1964, a hidden story unfolds – one of meteoric rise and crushing descent. James George Nicol, a journeyman drummer, stepped into the hallowed ranks of The Beatles for a mere 13 days, filling Ringo Starr’s shoes during a bout of tonsillitis. His tale, though brief, resonates with the bittersweet allure of fame and the often cruel sting of forgotten heroes.
The Universe Doesn’t Owe You Fairness
We yearn for fairness. We crave justice, balance, a universe where merit is rewarded and bad deeds punished. But the truth is, the universe operates on a different set of principles. It’s a vast, chaotic dance of energy and matter, devoid of inherent morality or concern for our human concepts of fairness. This can be a difficult pill to swallow, especially when life throws us curveballs, doles out misfortune seemingly at random, and leaves us wondering, “Why me?”

1. We keep dating. We never stopped dating. We absolutely prioritize us over anything and anyone else.
We make a point of nonsexual touching and kissing frequently.
We have a lot of sex. You have to make this a commitment. Schedule it if need be.This is the cement of your bond.
We express appreciation and gratitude to each other. We know he is better at some things, and I am better at other things, and we are a team for a mutual cause. No competition.
No mind games. We work hard at identifying times we might be manipulative or passive-aggressive and call each other on it.
We keep other people out of our relationship.
We keep working on open, transparent communication. We keep trying to be empathetic and not jump to conclusions or make assumptions — those are very bad.
And very emphatically, we are each other’s safe place — emotionally, physically, spiritually, psychologically. If he expresses an emotionality, I will NEVER bring that into his face ever again, and vice versa.

Poll of the Day
My fiancé has all guy friends, and I’ve noticed since the beginning that they all kinda treat him like the pack mule and really just like the little b of the group. It sounds bad but it’s true.
They expect him to do whatever they want, when they hang out, he’s expected to always bring drinks and gets ragged on when he doesn’t (even if they never bring drinks).
They make mean comments about him to his face under the guise of “jokes” and he’s even told me sometimes they hurt his feelings.
I’ve even had other people tell me they’ve always kinda treated him like that and were kinda mean to him. They’ve been friends for years, like middle school.
I guess I’m just curious. Is that normal in guy friendships? It just seems unhealthy to me, but I have never been in that situation.
