Greg Kihn died - Same age as me [View all]

Greg Kihn just died - Same age as me - And here I am, still getting up early every morning and trudging off to work. My usual aches and pains this morning made me ask, "Maybe I'm gettin' a little too old for this gig." But then as the day wore on and my body shook it off and got into the rhythm of mind & body movement, I said to myself, "Oh yeah, this is why I do it- I shake off the jiggers and my day gets good." People seek me out for what I know and a woman today God Blessed Me and told me I'm wonderful for how I treated her. I get paid for this.

My favorite Greg Kihn song is The Breakup Song and I've got it on rotation in my listening app; but I'm putting up Jeopardy because it's so quintessentially 80's. I can imagine it playing on Miami Vice as Sonny Crockett and Rico Tubbs cruise down the wet streets of night time Biscayne Boulevard.
