What Would Keith Richards Do?

A NYT blog posted on a new, unauthorized book about Keith Richards, “What Would Keith Richards Do?: Daily Affirmations from a Rock and Roll Survivor

It turns out that Keith Richards, in addition to being perhaps the most durable and enduring person on the planet ( indeed I have long though he may be the only thing other than cockroaches and diet coke that would survive a nuclear holocaust) he is also one of the funniest.

From the NYT:

Keith the historian: “That Adolf. What a piece of work.”

Keith the nutritionist: “Cheese is very wrong.”

Keith the fantasist: “I’ve never turned blue in someone else’s bathroom. I consider that the height of bad manners.”

Here is the article. Do not read while eating or drinking.
