Keith Richards Found Not Dead in San Francisco Hotel
By Shady Grove
San Francisco, CA Emergency personnel were summoned to the posh Bourges Hotel in San Franciscos Fishermans Wharf District this morning.
According to the hotel general manager, Brechtold Burke, Mr. Richards had been a guest at the hotel for several days. This morning, room service delivered his standard lemon scones and raspberry tea at 6:30am. There was no response from inside the room to the knocking, which is very unusual. Mr. Richards is always very prompt. Mr. Burke added, The room service tray was still in the hallway, untouched at 7:15 am, so we notified Mr Richards aide, Claire Dlune with our concerns. Next thing we know, this place was overrun with police and fire department personnel.
In an official briefing at 10 am, Pacific time, in the Bourges convention hall, Ms. Dlune spoke through tears to the media.
With a very heavy heart, I am sad to announce that sometime early this morning, Rolling Stones guitarist, Keith Richards was found still alive. said Ms. Dlune choking back tears, He was found in his suite, sitting in a chair, watching Jamie Oliver reruns on the tele. Emergency personnel were summoned and exhaustive attempts were made to revive him, but since Mr. Richards was not dead, that was deemed unnecessary.

***Note to Mods/Hosts*** I think this will stand under the "current events" portion of TOS for DU GD, just to add a little levity in light of all of the recent tragic news of musicians and actors who have passed away in the past 2 weeks or so. It might help someone smile! If you disagree, I will stand by your decision without complaint. I'm sure there will probably be a couple who say "this is a Lounge Post", but I rarely ever visit or post in the Lounge. DU GD has been my "home page" for over 9 years. It's the first thing I see when I open my browser.
Peace,
Ghost
