He has never seen the light of day. Despite being blind, Mike Barnard feels pretty independent. He cooks, walks his dog Tommy, shoots baskets in his driveway and works at Montgomery County High School as a switchboard operator. Sometimes he wishes he could be a mindreader and see the way people look at him. But most of the time he just wants to make people laugh.
