The wires just whispered that Ray Charles died today.

"I was born with music inside me. That's the only explanation I know of... Music was one of my parts ... Like my blood. It was a force already with me when I arrived on the scene. It was a necessity for me, like food or water."

Brother Ray, Charles's autobiography

The only thing that helps with this wrenching news is that I heard it from you. Can't really feel that anything could help, but that one fact is good enough for now! Rock on, Ray!

I am so much more sad about this than about Ronzo's multi-celebrated passing.
