Ray Charles was a blind performer. Now does it make any sense?
I understand Nordly's confusion on this one: the joke would have to be more specific incorporating some point about faces at a distance.
I just cannot suspend my disbelief and frankly, that kills a joke.

Originally posted by demonseedI had the same thought when I read shortcircuit's explanation, although I would have understood why it was supposed to be funny if I had known that he was blind.

Originally posted by Nordlysjeez, it wasn't even my joke, and I am the one explaining it. In the context it was delivered, some of us found it humorous. I merely posted a work of a brilliant artist who amazed me with the style he painted the portrait.
