Keith Richards No Father-Snorter

Rolling Stone Keith Richards is denying that he ever ground his dead father's ashes up with some cocaine and snorted them. Hold on a second - who ever said Keith did that in the first place? Oh, Keith did, just a couple days ago in an interview with British music mag NME:

The strangest thing I've tried to snort? My father. I snorted my father. He was cremated and I couldn't resist grinding him up with a little bit of blow. My dad wouldn't have cared ... It went down pretty well, and I'm still alive.

I'm telling you, only Keith Richards could get himself into a position where he would have to deny snorting his own father's cremated remains. Because if anyone else said that, we'd immediately realize it was a joke. But with Keith? Our first instinct was, "Yup, I could see him doing that." And I still think he did. I don't care how many times Keith denies it - he wasn't joking when he said that. He really did it. And that's why he's Keith Richards and you're not (and you're damn lucky, let me tell you that).
