My obsession gave to me:
The name of my dog when I was 7.
I picked out an adorable German Shepherd/Collie mix puppy and my parents entrusted me with the name of the dog. At the time, I was a Rick Springfield fan AND a Dukes of Hazzard fan, so I needed a name to honor the two. The logical choice? Jesse. Spelled like Uncle Jesse from the Dukes of Hazzard but also giving a nod to Jessie's Girl.
It's a good thing that I already had a dog named Jessie, because Monkey Man may very well have ended up with that name. But after your dog has had the name already, it doesn't work well on the humans in the family - or at least that's what my husband thought.

Rick did pretty well on VH1's top 100 songs of the 80's. Jessie's Girl was in the top 10, maybe even the top 5.
It is my ALL TIME FAVORITE song and it should very well be in the top 5!
