"NPR just announced that Ray Charles died. A sad loss."
I'd link to the entry in a friend's blog where he said that, but it appears to be friends-only, so...
I'll link to his journal in general instead. Dave: The Series.
This is very bad, because as some famous bathroom graffiti (I saw it quoted in the Dinosaur Bar-b-que Cookbook: "God is Love. Love is blind. Ray Charles is blind. Ray Charles is God."
So, the world may end soon. Brace yourselves.
But seriously, that sucks. I'm bummed.
