Ray Charles- Dead

[welsh]

This place is becoming like the obituraries. Well Ray Charles has bitten the dust. More important than Reagan perhaps, Ray Charles, the guy Stevie Wonder couldn't be, is gone.

I saw him once on an airplane flying to Europe, but unfortunately he didn't see me.

I think the government should set a day of mourning for this great Blues singer.

But at least they got good tunes in Heaven. So be good kids and you can see Uncle Ray singin. If you go to Hell you'll just have to listen to the Gipper.

I wonder if he's singing "Hallelujah, I Love Her So" right now...

Bad news.

If you go to Hell you'll just have to listen to the Gipper.

Or Wagner.

Actually knowing that Ronald Reagan is in Hell would be enough to get me to go to confession.

For those more interested in Ray Charles. My wife and I have been listening to his greatest hits. Good tunes.

Poor Charles. I always found his pic at Ebaum's funny as hell...

I guess now isn't a good time to bring that up.
