3,000 years from now a future civilization is going to dig up Kieth Richards body and marvel at our skills at preservation and mummification.

Why do Google searches of Randi Rhodes come up with that lush from Air America instead of one the greatest 80’s guitarists?

Ozzy has had some great songs over the years.
IMHO, Ozzy is still alive because of a great wife.
Also, someone else said he’s pickled, which is true. You can’t turn a pickle back to a cucumber.
To: epithermal
He must share some genetic makeup with Keith Richards, aka, the Crypt Keeper.
