He Was Probably High When He Said It

Keith Richards is saying today that he never snorted his daddy's ashes. Yesterday a quote from a magazine interview had Keith saying,
"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."
Keith's rep said it was said as a joke. "Said in jest. Can't believe anyone took [it] seriously."
I knew it was too good to be true. I'm sure he thought about it though. They should ask Pete Doherty the same question. He'd probably say "I snorted Keith Richards' daddy's ashes with a bit of coke" and he wouldn't be joking.
