I've just been listening to "Ain't No Sunshine".

As a song laced with restrained emotion I currently cannot think of many that are finer.

just had a message from my daughter;

she says'   ''he gave me a kiss on the cheek and said i was gorgeous. He told outrageous stories, he was lots of fun'

                  he said he had a very cool life .

I think she was fond of him , saney .

How do you turn a duck into a soul singer?
Put it in a microwave until its bill withers.
