Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger poked fun at the Monty Python stars on Monday ahead of the comedy troupe's reunion concerts this week as "a bunch of wrinkly old men trying to relive their youth and make a load of money."

Appearing in a video shown at the Monty Python Live (mostly) news conference at a central London theater, Jagger is asked by his assistant if he wants tickets for the shows. The singer, who is watching the World Cup football on TV with bandmate Charlie Watts, replies: "Who wants to see that again? It was funny in the 60s."

He adds: "The best one died years ago. Maybe back in the 70s it was fantastic -- it was the funniest thing. We've seen it all before. I mean they've put it all up on YouTube."

Hell, aside from the gray hair, Keith Richards has looked pretty much like that since his late 20s.

I told a relative that I thought Jagger was one of the ugliest men alive.

Toss up between him and Steven Taylor. How Liv Taylor can be so pretty and yet so obviously be his child is one of the great mysteries of life.

A friend of mine recently had some dealings with Jagger and said he was one of the nicest guys he ever met. And one of the happiest. Because he actually gets to be MICK FREAKIN’ JAGGER.

Maybe he does.

I don’t know how to post pictures but if someone who knows how to do it could find and post a pic of the young Mic Jagger, then all could see that he was quite handsome, and all the women back them swooned over him.

I tried working through a mini-tutorial with you to post the pix below, but my html is so rusty that I couldn't make it work. Here's a couple that I selected to post. You should check out html sandbox and give it a try; you can practice without posting until you're satisfied. I'd suggest not using both height and width, but one or the other which ever makes it work for what you want to show. I set up the two below with height=250.(I don't know what that means, BTW. Usually takes me a couple of tries to get it right.)

FWIW he's a cute kid........

Thank you for posting the pics. Plus the advice on how to do it. And you’re right, he was a cute kid, and was nice looking as a young adult, at least in my humble opinion.
