...enrolled Nate in the Boston Higashi School in Randolph, Mass., because I knew he was now capable of more (though I had no idea what "more" was). After years of day school followed by speech, occupational and behavior therapy, Nate had no master plan connecting everything. And I constantly worried that his ritualistic behaviors--like his insistence on sitting in the same seat in the last row of the city bus and crawling over anyone to get there--were never going to decrease...
...tell you from personal experience: the last person you want giving you advice is someone who has spent 30 of the past 40 nights shuttling a small laminated index card to senior bar.I am not the first person to realize this.

Butler, now a senior at San Francisco University High School, said in a phone interview that...
...started and all hell broke loose. The Grammy producers really enjoy "spontaneous" moments, and despite years of evidence, they believe nothing provides more of them than star-filled medleys. What we learned is that Joss Stone, John Legend, Fantasia, Maroon 5, Ciara, Will.i.am, Steve Tyler, Joe Perry and Robert Randolph all have one thing in common-they can butcher Sly Stone songs beyond recognition. But at least they tried, as opposed to super duper secret guest star Sly Stone, who emerged with a platinum mohwak, strode to the keyboard, played around for a minute or two and then promptly left...
