Miracles do happen...


I CAN WALK! IT’S A MIRACLE! . . . A woman who begged for money from her wheelchair on the streets of Monterrey, Mexico, planned to assist her husband in the robbery of a furniture store. She threw a rock through the window as a distraction, but when the caper went bad, she got up and ran away.
I posted this little blurb from the Boston Herald because a couple times a week I meander over to Liberty Plaza (Broadway & Liberty) to grab some lunch. There's a little park there overlooking Ground Zero.

Every once in a while there is a gentleman parked on the corner in his wheel chair playing a clarinet. A sign sits propped up against the corner building stating:

"Paralysized...Please Help"

Of course, it seems miracles do indeed happen in NYC...and not just on 34th street. He taps his foot to the music every time I see him.
