KEITH Richards has made a shocking confession that's going to jolt his longtime fans: The party-animal rock star has turned into Mr. Suburban.
The Rolling Stones guitar great, who will soon turn 59, says many of his great joys in life now revolve around his peaceful tree-lined neighborhood in southern Connecticut.
His big chores of the day are driving his teenage daughters, Alexandra and Theodora, to school and taking out the garbage.
"I have no fixed routine . . . I read a lot. I might have a little sail around Long Island Sound if the weather is all right," Richards tells the Oct. 17 issue of Rolling Stone mag.
"Patti [Hansen] and I go out go out once a week if there's something on in town - take the old lady out for dinner with a bunch of flowers."
Instead of going to bed coked-up at 7 a.m., that's when he's getting up, bright-eyed and bushy-tailed.
It's a night-and-day difference from the years when Richards did so many drugs - speed, coke, acid, heroin, dope - that he had his blood cleansed.
Playing with the Stones tonight at Madison Square Garden as part of their world tour, the grizzled rocker now sticks to vodka and cigarettes.
But he doesn't want anybody to think he's calming down - and he plans to play with the Stones for as long as he physically can.
"You keep going, and why not? You're fighting upstream against this preconception that you can't do this at this age," he tells the mag.
"But I don't flaunt it. I've never tried to stay up longer than anybody else just to announce to the media that I'm the toughest."
When asked to describe the levels of drug excess he and Mick Jagger plummeted into in the old days, Richards tells Rolling Stone: "He wasn't exactly Mr. Clean and I was Mr. Dirty."
And he says although they're a great songwriting team, their current lives couldn't be more different.
"Mick has to dictate to life. He wants to control it. To me, life is a wild animal. You hope to deal with it when it leaps at you," Richards explains. "[Mick] can't go to sleep without writing out what he's going to do when he wakes up. I just hope to wake up, and it's not a disaster."
So now that he's a little over a year away from turning 60, just what is Keith's secret to stayin' alive?
"If you want to live a long life, join the Rolling Stones," he quips.

Joey...I have been a life-long Democrat..however, I have found myself slowly become more conservative on defense issues. For example, I am very much in favor of premptive strikes against Iraq..much like Israel did in 84 when they took out the nuclear reactor Saddam was bulding. Does this make me less of a person? "Athena" was the last great Who song.

Josh,
A person who is not a liberal before they are 30 has not heart.
Conversely, a peron who is not a conservtive after he is 30 has no brain.
Winston Churchill said that.
You are in good company, along with Ronald Reagan and Nanky.
Welcome into "The Fold" Josh.

" Does this make me less of a person? "Athena" was the last great Who song. "
Josh , your military tone of thinking is reflected in your music . The song " Athena " is about a nuclear warhead . As you know , the United States successfully detonated its very first nuclear weapon in July of 1945 in the New Mexico desert ........the name given to the bomb was " Athena " !!!!!!
" Athena, my heart felt like a shattered glass in an acid bath
I felt like one of those flattened ants you find on a crazy path
I'd of topped myself to give her time she didn't need to ask
Was I a suicidal psychopath?
She's just a girl - she's a bomb"
Josh , please remember what Lyndon Johnson stated in 1965 , " The build up of missiles , tanks , ships , planes , bullets -- all are witness to human folly . The sign of a strong nation is healthy children learning in classrooms , citizens with enough money in their pockets to buy the things they desire .......this must not be a nation for just the rich , well educated and well fed -- it will never last . "
......or listen to the Petey :
" Look into the face of a child
Measure how long you smiled
Before the memory claimed
How long would children remain
How long would children remain "

Saddam Hussein holds Iraq together .................He was left there on purpose to prevent Iraq from being nibbled up by its neighbors .
Take him out and Iran will move into the southern region of Iraq , Syria the Western half and Turkey the northern sector -- talk about instability , huh ?????

Iran will be a democracy within two years.
On it's own.
Leaving Saddam in was old thinking.
We now know otherwise.
With a democratic Iraq and a democractic Iran, Saudi Arabia and Syria will follow.
Get your head out the 80's Joey!
It's not healthy!
Now, excuse me while I go put on some Petshop Boys.
IT'S HIGH, IT'S FAR, IT'S GONE!!! HOME RUN!!
