It's Wally Wednesday. Here's the little guy from a few years ago during a trip to Big Bear. As you can see, he has a drinking problem.
I read this article on the internet yesterday that says Keith Richards once mixed the ashes from his father’s remains with cocaine and snorted it. First off, eew. Secondly, is it just me, or does Richards look like a mummified human being? I can't believe he's only 63! Said Richard, "He was cremated and I couldn't resist grinding him up with a little bit of blow. My dad wouldn't have cared," he said. "... It went down pretty well, and I'm still alive." Although he released a statement this morning denying that he ever really did that, you have to wonder. I mean, look at the guy. He clearly doesn't care what goes into his body.
In other news, a Swedish couple is fighting with the government over naming their newborn daughter “Metallica.” The Swedish National Tax Board refused to register the name because it is associated both with the rock group and with the word “metal.” Can you imagine the backlash from the Hollywood and rock star community if the US Tax Board responded the same way?
My next script has some new scenes that came in yesterday. Lord Stanley’s Cup has been added as an important prop, and the best thing is that the REAL cup will actually be here! I’m trying to figure out how to make off with it as I write this.
The song of the day is “Just Between You And Me” by April Wine off their 1981 album The Nature Of The Beast. This is another one of those bands where I probably know more of their music than just this song, but this is the only one I can ever remember. And I only ever remember this song because my sister had the 45 and used to play it on her record player (remember those?).

I assume you will have your photo taken the Cup - the coolest trophy in professional sports?
p.s. Today Keef is denying that story . . .
p.p.s. Metallica? Were Slayer and Danzig already taken?
I read that story about Keith Richards. Didn't surprise me one bit.
I think Metallica is a perfectly acceptable name for a girl. If I were to ever give birth to twins, I'd name the girl Vixen and the boy Raige.
I'd like to see a picture of you with the Cup in a future blog post, editthis. I hope you can make it happen.
Having your picture taken with the Cup is awesome. I have two pictures of me with Lord Stanley's Cup on my fridge from when the NHL made their way through Southern California a few years ago. I stood in line two days in a row for several hours to have the picture taken. It was really awesome.
So, did you get DEK anything good for his birthday today?
Thanks for adding Wally!
Poor Wally. When does he check in to rehab?
I now have "Just Between You And Me" in my head. Baby, you know our love will be...
You definitely have to post a photo of yourself with The Cup!
I really dug the old footage of Shat that was mixed into your show last night. I read somewhere it was 50 years old.
p.s. I believed Keith yesterday when he said he snorted his dad. Today's back-peddling smacks of a publicist's damage control, IMHO.
You'll have to go visit the home of my team, the Buffalo Sabres to get a glimpse of the cup this year!
Of course that's wishful thinking as Buffalo can never win anything when it comes to sports!
I heard about Richard's as well and let me tell u something - IT REALLY SURPRISED ME because no matter how fucked up these 'artists' (and I use the term loosely) are it just freaks me that they will do some things that they do. I mean, come on ya'll, snorting ur dead dad's ashes? please! it goes beyond even for Richards. Now if Britney Spears did it ................
