Keith Richards Snorted His Dad

(From BoingBoing) This reminds me of a 6Ft Under episode when some idiot kids snort the ashes of their bimbo actress friend.

Rolling Stone Keith Richards told the NME music mag that he once snorted a bit of his old man's ashes. From Reuters:

"The strangest thing I've tried to snort?" the Sun quoted Richards as saying in its early Wednesday edition. "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."
UPDATE: Richards's manager says Keith was just kidding. LAME

On love and hatred

..It is a curious subject of observation and inquiry, whether hatred and love be not the same thing at the bottom. Each, in its utmost development, supposes a high degree of intimacy and heart-knowledge; each renders one individual dependent for the food of his affections and spiritual life upon another; each leaves the passionate lover, or the no less passionate hater, forlorn and desolate by the withdrawal of his object. Philosophically considered, therefore, the two passions seem essentially the same, except that one happens to be seen in a celestial radiance and the other in a dusky and lurid glow...
