Growing up my dad was always my summer league coach. We threw the ball and I hit the ball for hours in our backyard and on the field. I had the opportunity to play baseball at the collegiate level but

Greg Kihn of the Greg Kihn band passed away at 75 on Tuesday. Apparently complications due to Alzheimer’s. 

Hmm, he had a radio show in the Bay Area for a long time. I wonder when he stopped.

It was the luckiest day of Greg Kihn's life when he say an ad in the paper that the Greg Kihn Band was looking for a lead singer/guitarist.

Why he say that?

I'll never forget the time he ruined the Academy Awards.  

I came here to write, “First, Raquel Welch, now her co-presenter at the Academy Awards.”  RIP, Phil, you tried to keep that business classy. Couldn’t do it, but you tried.

So you're saying Marlo is available.

So you’re at the wake and whisper, “Psst, which one is Marlo?”

”That girl!”

You'd be surprised. Huey Lewis found himself in the same situation.

I met Donahue (and Marlo) in about 1984 at a benefit gala for Gloria Steinem's "Ms" Foundation.  The featured speaker that night was Dabney Coleman - and yes, he was pretty famous at that time for playing male chauvinists, especially in "9 to 5," and I'm sure the irony of making him the featured speaker was intentional.   

I was Coleman's cue card holder for his speech.  He was very cool to me.

Donahue definitely wasn't afraid to give orders to the entire production crew (spotlight guys, etc) even though he didn't specifically have any role of authority.

Both guys now in this thread.

He was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom three months ago.

The most prestigious award possible, because, ya know, he wasn't mangled in a war or anything.

you knew you were sick and home from school when you were stuck watching Price is Right and Donahue

Meanwhile, G. I. Joe didn't come on until after school was out.  Unless you were just fine, in which case, G. I. Joe was on half-an-hour before school got out.

Wow, they both look ancient.

Didn't know that either of them were still alive.

Yeah, saw another photo from that event and Phil and Marlo both looked extremely ancient. Not Bob Newhart ancient, but up there.

And today I learned Marlo is only two years younger than Phil.

I like me some older women, but....
