Slightly Anxious Rocker Chick Asks:
Is Keith Richards going to be okay? Do I need to do something besides play Exile on Main Street repeatedly?
They say: he fell out of a coconut tree, and then went on jet-ski rampage 'til his brain swelled up. But now he's "just fine." SNORT!
I'm afraid no version of the story passes the believeablility test.
I am impressed that he is elderly and still completely out of control. Yet I worry..
He once said, "My epitaph will be: 'Fuckers! I told you I wasn't feeling well.'"
I've always wanted to knock out his infamous Shepherds' Pie recipe. Maybe we should all make one, and munch it down while casting a healing incantation:
Richards Shepherd's Pie
3 lbs. potatoes, "Tumbling Diced"
1 tablespoon butter
Salt and pepper to taste
2 lbs. ground beef
2 large onions, chopped
2 large carrots, grated
1 1/2 c. beef stock
1 T. cornstarch
Put potatoes in large saucepan; cover with water. Bring to boil, reduce heat, simmer until tender. Drain. Mash potatoes and butter. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside. Heat large iron skillet. Add beef and onions. Season with salt and pepper. Add carrots and stock. Mix in cornstarch, cook ten minutes. Pour meat mixture into pie dish and top with mashed potatoes. Place under broiler until potatoes begin to turn brown.
Let's have a toast to him, shall we?
