I thought to myself, you can't say that about jesse….the guy will get killed.
Had no idea who Rush was at the time but I was hooked from that point.
Wife and I would always listen to him going to the beach. Nothing like the EIB network on the shores of the beach.
One principle I learned from Rush....illustrate the absurd with the absurd.
And yes...I got a little misty eyed yesterday and today.
How many of us will be tuning in today at noon? It might be his highest rated show ever.
Rush was explaining how a person comes to work and does the job right - even when not feeling up to it. It's what professionals do he said... The professional puts aside personal problems and gets the job done.
It felt like he was giving us a way to deal with the realities of life. The reality of sickness, pain, disappointment and death: you show up - you do the job. He didn't mean it to be sad but I was struck by his resolve in the face of death. He would meet his obligation to all of us... and let us know we need to do the same in our lives with our obligations.
