April Fools!
-Whew! He didn't...-
Yesterday, it was reported that Keith Richards had cut his cremated father with coke and snorted him. Today, Keef -- through a representative -- clarifies. "It was an off-the-cuff remark, a joke, and it is not true. File under April Fool's joke," said Bernard Doherty of LD Communications, which represents the Rolling Stones.
Here's the thing -- he's Keith Freakin' Richards. If it's a weird story involving drugs, folks are going to believe it. (AP)
-Why people think evangelicals are assholes-
The Dalai Lama will be visiting Chicago, IL and evangelicals are preparing with workshops. "Interserve USA is putting on the workshops to teach Christians how to talk to Buddhists and, perhaps, to win converts," says the report. It's the freakin' Dalai Lama -- think they're going to have any luck?
"We welcome the Dalai Lama here, but we also want to have a chance to reach Tibetan Buddhists with the gospel," said Doug Van Bronkhorst, executive director of Interserve. He refrained from calling the religious leader a godless heathen, so I suppose that's a step in the right direction. (Chicago Sun-Times)
-Not his shade-
A Hickory, NC man has been arrested and charged with inhaling toxic vapors or 'huffing.' He was apprehended behind a Circuit City with a plastic bag and a can of spray paint. The man, Michael Edward Thompson, probably didn't try to claim innocence:
He should've told them he was just trying on his 'Tin Man' costume for a Wizard of Oz party. (The Smoking Gun)
