Keith Richards Is a Free Man
Ok, we all know Arkansas Gov. Huckabee has a ridiculous name. Now he's making ridiculous news. CNN has this hard news opposite all that fighting in Lebanon/Israel/OverThere.
So Gov. Huckabee got the idea when he figured out that Richards' view of Arkansas had been "marred." I guess getting busted in a state will do that. Then again, if you're Arkansas, just being a state will do that.
The question that immediately emerges in this investigative reporter's mind is "So, did the fan get pardoned, too?" Or is he/she (oh, who are we kidding? What rock-respective male rock band takes its guy fans on the road with it?) still doing time out in Pine Bluff?
What's more entertaining is that the Guv got a shout-out for his band, Capitol Offense, which we hear is tantamount to capital punishment.

"Richards was arrested July 5, 1975, as he, bandmate Ron Wood,
a security guard and a fan traveled from Memphis, Tennessee, to Dallas, Texas.
The group had stopped in Fordyce, Arkansas, for lunch, then got back on the road
with Richards driving.
A Fordyce officer saw the car swerve -- Richards said later he bent to
adjust the radio -- and stopped the vehicle. Police said they smelled marijuana
and took the four to City Hall.
Richards was charged with reckless driving and possession of a
concealed knife, and the fan was charged with possession of a controlled
substance. The knife charge was dropped, and Richards pleaded guilty to reckless
driving and paid a $162.50 fine."
