Little Stevie Wonder
Steveland Morris went blind when he was given too much oxygen in his incubator at birth. Too much of a good thing. It destroyed his eyes, but his genius would be sound. He was 12 when he did Fingertips. Unlike the white girls in the video, I dare you to listen to it without moving. Go ahead, try.
I was listening to his music today while at work and had the thought that, someday, we’ll live in a world without Stevie Wonder in it, and I almost burst into tears.

























Hi Rattie,
Where have I been? Where have you been? Thanks for all the encouragement. Blogging is more fun when you have a few readers!

WG-
Alas, I took some time off to plan a reunion with some old college buddies. Loved the post on your site about the tribulations of menstrual flow (there’s a sentence I never thought I’d write…).
Uh oh, we’re communicating through comments that are off-topic. Doesn’t that break a blogging Commandment or something?
