All time favorite of Marines leaving Okinawa, had 3 tours there...no regrets.

A true master of his trade...Duane Allman:

Well , I didn't get my package at 8:05 , but have the song cued up.

Skip Spence was a drummer for Quicksilver Messenger Service, then a guitarist for the Jefferson Airplane. He wrote their first single from the Surrealistic Pillow album, that being "My Best Friend".. But alas , he eventually succumbed to his drug use.
Moby Grape left a few underground classics in it's wake, including this one:

8.05
Moby Grape
Eight-oh-five
I guess you're leaving soon
I can't go on without you
Its useless to try
To love you would be so good
To keep you would be so wonderful
Here is my heart that I give
It's all that I have
Please change your mind
Before my sunshine is gone
Do you think you can try?
Do you think you can try?
Do you think you can try?
Please change your mind
Before my sunshine is gone
Do you think you can try?
Do you think you can try?
Do you think you can try?
Please understand how I feel
Until I can prove it to you
Don't fill my world with rain
You know your tears
Would only bring pain in my heart
Eight-oh-five
I guess you're leaving...goodbye

That song brings back good memories. I used to be a distance runner (lots of years and weight ago)...listened to Dire Straights, Devo, Pat Benetar, and Quarterflash on headphones all the time while running.

Ran a couple marathons, could never get used to running with a Walkman and headsets hanging on me but I did complete a lot of projects in my head.

Song I liked. But didn't quite understand.
White Rabbit. Jefferson Airplane

2 marathons, probably 100 or so 10Ks. Best 10k was 39 something, but usually trained for marathons back in the 50 minute area where the hot chick's were. Ed, I loved the "runners high" if I took off on 5:50 pace, I would hit the high in less than a mile. Man, I miss running. I have had 2 knee replacements to show for it. Lol

I am there with the knee replacements, with the 3/5 miles runs 4 times a week, my best first mile was a 5:01 and a 16:45 three miles. I sometimes wake up in the morning and think to myself I need to run. But now I leash up my Irish Setter and go for a good brisk walk. At this point in life, it is what I can do and I will leave it at that.
