    The passing of a giant. RIP

    Chuck Berry's music will possibly outlive all of humankind. Snippet of Chuck's music is recorded onto a gold disc, carried on the Voyager space probe. Launched in 1977, Voyager is currently leaving our solar system and sailing into interstellar space. Someday, an alien on some faraway planet may be rocking to Chuck's tunes. Go Johnny Go!!

    Chuck is alive & living in my basement! He said his records are selling better than ever & he's more popular now than when he was 'alive'! Ps: Good thing my basement is sound-proofed! :D

    Oh, Listen here mister. We got no way of understandin' this world. But we got as much sense of this bird flyin in the sky. Now there is a lot that bird don't know, but it don't change the fact that the world is happening to him all the same. What I am tryin to say is, is that the course of your life, well its changing, and you don't even see it- Forest Bondurant
