Happy birthday, Richie

His wife calls him Ritchie, with a T.
I can't refer to rock stars by their actual names on here w/o riling up people SO badly that they have a beef over it years later, & I don't mean figuratively.

My bad, I forgot the ‘t’, I did it to have fun with it, but I don’t understand why people get their panties in a bunch over that, if the person in question, in their private time, goes by their own name. I suppose it undermines the myth. I know that Iggy prefers to called “Jim”.

Anyone with a passing interest in Iggy/Jim or Tom Waits has to see their piece from the Coffee And Cigarettes film. Hilarious. The entire thing is great but that’s my favorite.
