While waiting for my car to be repaired this weekend (another long-ish story) Jess and I walked around Georgetown. We passed a little be-freckled white kid of about 12 years wearing a white t-shirt with the following message in block print across the front: "Listen to Bob Marley."
We both burst out laughing. It's not a statement, it's not a shirt that says I listen to Bob Marley, it's a commad. You must LISTEN TO BOB MARLEY. And there is this implied sense that this kid has seen the light and he's become a little evangelical missionary for the Who Shot the Sheriff Church of White Guys Who Love Bob Marley. Bob Bless you little guy. Keeping Fighting You Buffalo,(NY) Soldier.
After some searching I found the shirt online (his was white with black letter, but you get the idea)
