All of us, every single man, woman, and child on the face of the Earth were born with the same unalienable rights; to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. And, if the governments of the world can't get that through their thick skulls, then, regime change will be necessary.
Something most people don't know about Charlie: he was a hell of a baseball player having played in the old Negro League and MLB minors. From Wiki:
On June 5, 2008, Pride and his brother Mack "The Knife" Pride and 28 other living former Negro league players were "drafted" by each of the 30 Major League Baseball teams in a recognition of the on-field achievements and historical relevance of 30 mostly forgotten, Negro league stars. Pride was picked by the Texas Rangers, with whom he has had a long affiliation, and the Colorado Rockies took his brother.
OMG!!! I just sat down and see this! What a Great talent. What an awesome voice. RIP.
ReplyDeleteI should have known...MSN is saying he died of Covid-19.
ReplyDelete"It was burgers and fries and cherry pies in a world we used to know." RIP Mr. Charlie Pride.
