Of course, we all know that the Stones have gotten by on their looks alone all these decades. Looks like their secret is out!

How'd you find that?? I did a search and came up with nothing. If I'd known that it had already been posted I wouldn't have bothered and you would all have been spared my sarcastic insight.

He doesn't like anybody..he said that...Keith slags everybody these days too. Ginger rode in on Clapton's coat tails and it's been downhill since for him. Decent timekeeper but hardly someone to give a shit about now.

Indeed. My first thought upon reading the name was, "Oh, is that what her last name was supposed to be?"

Oh, I wouldn't say I was outraged, exactly. I just saw a perfect opportunity to be a smart-ass and I seldom pass those up.
