Crazy Eddie is a huge black man with a huge love for soul, funk, and (sadly) the Green Bay Packers. We never really clicked, but I would love walking past his work station--hearing him bellow along with his tape player. We finally bonded when I mentioned that I was going to the Tower of Power show. The floodgates opened as we built a great relationship talking music, football, music, and more music. He is a great man who lived a great life that fueled an endless supply of stories.... and he'll be missed. Crazy Eddie only has a few days left as he is battling lukemia, but I will think of him whenever I hear a good TOP song. See ya, Eddie.
Dedicated to the essentials of happiness: philosophy, basketball, music, coffee and doughnuts...
