We’re buying a beer for… Keith Richards

You turn 66 today, which is about 75 years past your life expectancy considering all the drugs you’ve consumed. Honestly, the fact that you’re still alive and kicking is astounding. Not quite inspiring, but certainly impressive. Then again, apparently your house was hit by a Nazi bomb when you were less than six months old and you survived that, so perhaps we shouldn’t be surprised. (Sure, you weren’t actually in the flat when it was bombed, but the events just confirm your will and talent for surviving.)
At some point in the near future, the memoir you’re writing — to the tune of a $7.3 million advance — will be published and instantly become a must-read. We can only hope you include the time a Web site bought you a virtual beer (but we won’t hold our breath).
