== History ==
When Marge was in high school, she had an interest in art and a schoolgirl crush on Ringo, which led to her painting many pictures of him, including several of herself and Ringo together. When her art teacher saw her drawing a sketch of Ringo and criticized her, she sent Ringo a letter and one of the portraits she had painted of him, asking for his honest opinion of the painting. When she got no reply, she gave up her interest in art.
Years later, Ringo was shown in his estate in England, where he has in fact been spending years writing replies to every piece of fan mail he has ever received, ending all (or at least many) of them with "P.S. Forgive the lateness of my reply" due to most of them being written and sent to him in the 60s during the height of the Beatles' popularity. His butler expresses his admiration to Ringo's devotion to writing, whereas Ringo claims it is simple courtesy as they took time to write to him and he must do in return. He answers one letter from a woman named Sally where he compliments her enclosed photograph and answers her questions, that his favorite color is blue and that Ringo is just a nickname; his true name is Richard. Next he opens Marge's package. In his reply to Marge, Ringo said that he liked the picture and had immediately hung it on his wall. He also said, in answer to her question, that "we do have hamburgers and fries in England, but we call French fries 'chips.'"  As with Sally's letter, then asked Marge to forgive the lateness of his reply.
Ringo's reply was fortuitously-timed: Marge was in a rut on her current art project (painting a portrait of Mr. Burns), and Ringo's reply inspired her to finish it."Brush with Greatness"
One of Marge's portraits of Ringo later appeared at a swap meet."Homer's Barbershop Quartet" Another was seen in the Simpsons' attic."The Color Yellow"
