These two gals and our friend Robby Greenberg invited me to lunch one January
Sunday in Davie, FL, and the first thing they said was “we want you to write us a
song”. “About what?” Two lifetimes of teasing and ridicule, they told me. Two
hours later I had a song. MaryJo and Carol are both active in the Florida non-profit
Abilities Venti which raises awareness and advocates for people with different
abilities. We sell a t-shirt that says “Label Jars, Not People”.
