Okay people. With this I’m admitting to you that I read People online (actually, I read the headlines from my personalized Google homepage, but I realize that doesn’t take much of the sting away since I chose to display the People module), but I hope you won’t begrudge me this odd one.
Apparently Rolling Stones über-id kid Keith Richards was vacationing in Fiji but had to be flown to Auckland, New Zealand because he suffered a mild concussion.
The cause?
“Various news reports have said that Richards fell from a coconut tree, a Jet Ski or a combination of the two.”
I’m not even sure how I might spin this for that additional bring-it-home chuckle because I think it’s pretty well home already. But if any of you cleverest of writers have a snappy retort, please do share.
Thank you. You’ve made my day.
*obviously* he was thrown from the jet ski, landed in a coconut tree, and then fell. that’s the only thing that makes sense.
apparently neither friends or family noticed his a) incoherent speech, b) dazed look, or c) lopsided gait as that’s his usual stance, and told him to “shake it off” and hop on a jet ski.
Mmmmmm…..coconut Jet Ski.
You can’t always get what you want. But if you try sometimes, you might find you get what you need.
