Ringo's eyebrow

Concerning Ringo's right eyebrow: what gives?

Here it is in full bushy glory (Sgt. Pepper's era from the looks). It's nearly slavic in its mink-like silkiness.



Now witness this freakish Greta Garbo slash. (Abby Road? Later? Pre-shaved head anyway.)


Did the Maharishi demand Ringo's eyebrow in some dark heathen Hindoo ritual?

Did Lennon in a pique of cruelty demand Ringo's eyebrow as payment for staying in the band?

What it a PCP freak-out? "The... hairy worm...is eating...my brain... must gouge it out...with... drumstick..."

Googling "Ringo's Eyebrow" has raised more questions than answers. Mostly people asking what the hell is wrong with Ringo's eyebrow.

One incurious person on some Beatles fan forum even went so far as to say "Who cares? He's Ringo and that's all that matters."

Well maybe, goddamit, he isn't Ringo. Did you ever think of that? Ever hear of Mossad, you patsy?

Curious.
