...Joseph Callahan, 69, had about 100 pounds of ammonium nitrate among the frightening cache of guns, ammo and explosives cops found when they raided his home last week.
...He also told them he was making a bomb for the hard-partying Richards, who lives in Weston, Conn., a short drive from Callahan’s home in the posh Greenfield Hill section of Fairfield.
...Callahan – a former employee of gunmaker Remington Arms – was charged by Fairfield cops Monday with 112 counts of illegal possession of explosives, reckless endangerment and manufacture of bombs.
Callahan told cops that explosives were only a hobby, and his lawyer, Richard Meehan, said the retiree had no plans to hurt anyone.
Fairfield cops also doubted his story about the wrinkled rocker...

This guy is around the corner from me. If this is such a serious deal, why was he released on a written promise to appear? Something stinks here.
Gee, Bob....you're quite the whimp.
Instead of “Start me up” the Stones could do “Blow me up.”
What a fool. Doesn’t he know by now that nothing can kill Keith Richards?
I met Keith Richards on St. Maarten. He wanted this bomb. Oh yeah...
Just a misunderstanding. Keef mumbled something about wanting to get bombed...
Well, it’s a sure bet poison wouldn’t work.
What a waste of time and money! If you want to kill a zombie then just shoot it in the head or use a sword and cut it off.......
He set Keef up the bomb!
Nancy/Bobby needs some warm milk to ease his fright of the world around him. Pussy!
I used to live in Danbury, Keith’s GF Patti used to buy groceries from my pal, in Ridgefield (@ Ancona’s). If there’s one thing we both should know, don’t believe 90% of what is published in the NY Post ;) Thanks
The man said he was making a bong for Keif Richards but his allergies have his congested today...
In other music industry news, none other than... yes, the one and only William Shattner has a new album coming out! On Cleopatra Records, where else?!

Will he be singing a duet with Leonard Nimoy?
Put me down as being in the “not buying it camp” as well.
Beneath the “Jack Sparrow” persona is (if you read his biography “Life”) an ex-boy scout and ex-choir boy. Not in the figurative sense of the words - quite literally.
Keith also talked in his bio about camping in some State Park in Arkansas and being dressed in old clothes and getting rained on and looking any other “man on the street” and loving that.
I suspect Keith is as down to earth as they come and definitely not the caricature that he is viewed as (and he obviously had a role in creating).
“I suspect Keith is as down to earth as they come “
But does Keef still have his shiv?
