Goodbye Lucky

People had worries since the Pope was an alter boy.
People had worries since the dead sea was only critical.

That's a line from a Lucky Dube song. I realize most of you have probably never heard of Lucky Dube, or if you have it's only because I forced you to listen to a CD on a long car ride somewhere. He was a prominent South African musician, probably their all time greatest hits machine. He followed Marley in that raggae was his music and music was a way to get a message across. He had a lot of music about social injustice.

He was shot down in a robbery attempt about a week ago. Like too many musicians too early. I've been listening to his music all day today.
