From Margaritaville.com: Congratulations to Mac – CMA Musician of the Year! Mac was honored by his peers, as he was named Musician of the Year at the CMA Music Awards held in Nashville, Tennessee on November 11th! 2009 has been a big year for Mac, with a No. 1 hit and an acclaimed solo album release. Congratulations Mac!

“I’m very happy,” McAnally said during a telephone interview from Nashville. “I’m very grateful and thrilled. I’m particularly happy I was nominated in a category where I don’t have to go on a diet.”

Jimmy Buffett has autographed a copy “Treasure Island” and it is up for auction on eBay. Proceeds to support the Hibiscus Children’s Center.

The Little Auction that Could: Big Names, Big Laughs, Big Cause
- If you were asked what childhood book made a lasting impression on you, what would you reply? Treasure Island? Green Eggs and Ham? Where the Wild Things Are? Or the iconic American classic The Little Engine That Could?

This very question was answered by over 80 celebrities. . . screen legends, sports stars, authors, musicians, philosophers and politicians . . .and the responses are as varied as the personalities who selected them (Jimmy Buffett and Sean Connery both love Treasure Island)!

Don’t miss this chance to support the Hibiscus Children’s Center.
