Keith Richards was in a Jetski/Coconut Tree accident. He's okay.
Only Keith Richards could have possibly been involved in an accident falling off of a jet ski or coconut tree or both. I mean, I have managed to do spectacularly retarded things, such as fall from a tree, but never while jetskiing. Amazingly, when I fell out of the tree, I landed on a rock and didn't get hurt.

1. Good grief,
How does that happen? I could understand crashing the jetski into a coconut tree, MAYBE. But in a coconut tree, falling, then somehow involving the jetski? I'm also one of those coordinated people. Hit myself in the nose with the tip of a tennis racket, then trying to duplicate the accident, I couldn't do it. But a jetski/coconut tree accident? I can't wait to hear "the rest of (that) story."
