Funny thing happened on the drive into work this morning. A commercial on the radio had a few second snippet of "I Got a Name". I sat up in the seat and said to myself that Croce had the music that perfectly captured my mood for the day.

Of course being the owner of a 7.3 second attention span I forgot about it long before making it into work. A quick run at the gym, a couple hours of being swamped by thermodynamics students begging for mercy, and the usual stuff that happens when the academic year comes to a close swamped me at work. I made up the test for the thermo class on monday and started working it...

And then I remembered the Croce song.

Queued up his greatest hits on the pooter. Started working the test. And have smile on my face for the first time all day. I wonder what old Jim would say if he knew that his songs still made people happy 46 years after his death. That's quite an accomplishment I'd say.
