RIP Kris Kristofferson

He lived to be 88 years old.
Interesting guy - a Rhodes Scholar and ex-husband of singer and FSU grad Rita Coolidge.
I was shocked when they said he was 88! I had no idea he was that old. Jeez, he was 12 years old when I was born, and I'm REALLY old!

Edit: He was actually 15! Yay, I'm not as old as I thought!

He was quoted once saying "Other people singing my songs sound way better than me singing them"
Also a helicopter pilot and rugby player. To get his first song recorded, he landed a helicopter on Johnny Cash's lawn and gave him a tape.
 
Well, they do kinda "drop like flies" when they are over 80 years old.
Kris, Pete, John, etc.

The spooky part is having several friends that are 80-ish. I don't (yet).
Hey there are millions of folks who still think over 80’s are STILL sharp as a tack.
