The obligatory “Keith Richards snorted his father” post

I saw this on the wires hours ago, before anyone else had it, then got sidetracked with McCain and Pelosi and now everyone else has it. Such is blogging.
If only there were a Drudge-ish “headlines” feature on our site, where I might add these tasty links as I come upon them…
As for Keith: of course he did.
Richards made the extraordinary admission in an interview with NME magazine.
“The strangest thing I’ve tried to snort? My father. I snorted my father,” he said.
“He was cremated and I couldn’t resist grinding him up with a little bit of blow. My dad wouldn’t have cared, he didn’t give a s***.
“It went down pretty well, and I’m still alive.”
I’ve been piling up crap links for most of the day, but none are good enough to warrant a post of their own so I’m going to dump ‘em here. First, a double scoop of tech awesomeness from UPI. Next, the first thing I’m going to buy when Hot Air makes its first million. Third, the mayor of Cincinnati throws like a girl — a girl with a debilitating physical illness. And finally, a special for my pal Slublog: the world’s most beautiful anchorwoman finally hits the big time. Make it happen, Roger Ailes. Make it happen.

It’s okay, he’s a zombie so snorting his pa can’t hurt him.

It’s like having an early birthday.

Relating the last few items:
Should we be “pitching” a “knight rider” (get it?) while watching the news?

Oh, man…groan…

Eh…I prefer the non-racy, newscaster stuff.
As a matter of fact, I am a prude. :-)
Slublog on April 3, 2007 at 6:44 PM
Keith has officially passed into the realm of pure myth.
Farmer_Joe on April 3, 2007 at 6:48 PM
Almost as strange as Ozzy Osbourn who , according to wikipedia…
“…While on tour with Mötley Crüe, Osbourne (according to Mick Mars, their guitarist) got into a cocaine snorting contest with their bassist Nikki Sixx. He then proceeded to snort a line of ants from an anthill nearby…”

And you ignored the Atlanta CNN shooting?

Later, he smoked his bones.

Allah, I take it you mean when Hot Air NET’S it’s first million. I only bring this up because at 1:46 this afternoon my bar/restaurant GROSSED it’s first million. I wanted to do it in one year but it took one year and 2 and a half days. That means I bought it March 1st 2006 for those of you in Rio Linda.
Let me tell you, there is a HUGE difference in what we net! :)

Love the crap links. You should consider a headline dump area.
Valiant on April 3, 2007 at 7:01 PM
Keith Richards = toxic waste dump.
thirteen28 on April 3, 2007 at 7:01 PM
Say what you want about Keith, the man writes great songs.
At least he used to.
Three decades ago.
forged rite on April 3, 2007 at 7:03 PM
Leave Richards alone, any one of you would do the same!
RightWinged on April 3, 2007 at 7:11 PM
Of all the things Keith Richards has put into his body, embalming fluid-laced human ashes is probably the least of his worries.
James on April 3, 2007 at 7:13 PM
embalming fluid-laced human ashes
Are what keep him going. Next week on the View Rosie admits snorting the bones of small puppies, blames George Bush.
harry on April 3, 2007 at 7:16 PM
And ever since, Keith has been struggling with the urge to cut his hair and turn down that godawful music.
infidel4life on April 3, 2007 at 7:33 PM
Person who make ‘Rio Linda’ joke should preview before he press ‘Submit’
(Check your math.)
The Monster on April 3, 2007 at 7:38 PM
I question the timing.
amerpundit on April 3, 2007 at 7:43 PM
Why is anything that comes out of this morons mouth news?
Mooseman on April 3, 2007 at 7:48 PM
No wonder Keith looks like this
RedinBlueCounty on April 3, 2007 at 8:12 PM
He kinda reminds of why dogs wanna sniff your crotch.

Whoa! It’s a good thing I didn’t link to the other 5 photos I found.

Well, at least Keith finally picked up a little personality. What’s the old English drinking song – Give me some time to blow the man down–
Texas Mike on April 3, 2007 at 9:04 PM
The fact that any of those fossils are being interviewed at all tells me one thing: The Stones are ginning up some pointless buzz for yet another last tour.
I remember the good old days when they weren’t a novelty act.
SailorDave on April 3, 2007 at 9:17 PM
For the record, prior to today, I would have said that there was nothing Keith Richards could do that would shock me.
Silly me…
JayHaw Phrenzie on April 3, 2007 at 10:11 PM
He looks like his bones are half dust. He should snort himself. Snort yer folks, but beware of neocons.

Speaking of Knight Rider:
I had, like, a MAJOR crush on Edward Mulhare(Devon) in the early to mid 1980’s. I was something like 12-15 at the time.
I had crushes on William Daniels and Ricardo Montalban too-never mind that they were old enough to have GRANDCHILDREN my age.
I’ve always had a thing for older guys.
Guess that explains the 11 years older husband.
annoyinglittletwerp on April 3, 2007 at 10:50 PM
Only in desperation…and as a tribute.
Heh. Some people seem to think differently…
Slublog on April 3, 2007 at 10:50 PM
Does this make him a Cannibal? WEll if he was Cannibal, I think we would have to limit the headlines ;) if it involved Mrs Richards.
StuLongIsland on April 3, 2007 at 10:52 PM
I can’t believe no one here is talking about the French anchor hottie…wow would that be something if she came to American/Fox News.
Patriot33 on April 3, 2007 at 11:15 PM
Keith Richards looks so much like my younger brother they could almost be twins (if my brother was 10 years older). Drugs will do that to a body.
Bob's Kid on April 3, 2007 at 11:16 PM
Feh. KP is still my favorite. Sure the Frrwench babe is cute but as far as I’m concerned she got nothing on KP.
auspatriotman on April 4, 2007 at 12:01 AM
One more stones song for the road…..
forged rite on April 4, 2007 at 12:45 AM
Sneakin’ in one more
forged rite on April 4, 2007 at 12:52 AM
What the hell good is it then??
Keith, buddy, I think you died about 30 years ago – you are the living dead. This only confirms it.
Rick on April 4, 2007 at 1:01 AM
Keith has been dead for a long time, but he is too stoned to have noticed. Still, snorting your dead dad… Dude!
doufree on April 4, 2007 at 8:09 AM
Second ugliest rock band in the world, Grateful Dead is number uno.
im4eagles on April 4, 2007 at 9:22 AM
Horrible, but funny. Probably more funny than horrible. Actually gives me an idea for my will…..gotta run!
honora on April 4, 2007 at 12:45 PM
Keith knows something either you and I never knew or forgot:
Better living through chemicals.
