"The human mind is a wonderful thing, it starts working from before you're born and doesn't stop till you sit down to write a song."

---- Roger Miller, born 85 years ago today in Fort Worth, Texas and writer of classic songs like "King of the Road," "Dang Me," and many others. Traces of Texas reader Kevin Donahue took this photo of Roger and Willie Nelson at John T. Floore's country store in Helotes back in 1975. Thank you, Kevin!
