So I stop at my Starbx at Crenshaw. This guy (in wheelchair) tells me his name is Ray Charles, he’s a vet, a bluesinger and I remind him of his first wife (who he says he killed). Ok. He says he shook President Obama’s hand last week at Roscoes. Ok. His friend with the hat never talks, just smiles and shakes his head in agreement. I don’t know about Ray Charles and his stories but then a policeman drives by and stops to say to him, hey I saw you on Channel nine news shaking hands with the Pres!! too cool man.” They introduce me to the beautiful African Queen. i say, you are indeed a beautiful african queen. ” a reflection of yourself, ” she answers. she will model for me she says.
