Just to clarify, what is it they need money for? Maybe to support the nonprofit group. I've been following this on keynews and missed the money request I guess. It's hard to get into some news items if you don't pay.

Re: Buffett Song Leads to Bar Fight

Whatcha gonna do next year when dates are announced?

1. Remain angry and boycott. 2. Mortgage the house and make reservations early on. 3. Wait until dates are very close before buying tix. Of course this may result in the appearance of lack of interest resulting in more canellations. 4. Go to the beach and have a beer while listening to Buffett. 5. P...

Re: ...you might be a parrothead

If after sitting on the beach for an hour or so someone close by walks over and asks if your cd player only plays Buffett. (And I don't even play music loud at the beach.)

Re: Buffett & The C.R.B.......Super Bowl 2010?

"Buffett is actually working on a new business model, where 10 percent of a fan's income is automatically garnished from the wages. It's going to be called a Tropical Tithe."
Bad timing, especially since the country is in a Tropical Depression.

Re: Is the world ready for us?

This Buffett/Dolphin thing will surely bring attention to the Buffett experience. No big deal for hard core footballers though. Some will appreciate it. And whether fans appeciate it or not they may participate in stadium antics. And then others will be annoyed. He still may gain some new fans thoug...

We throw the word around like we throw the word introvert around. These are serious ailments. Let's hope paranoia tr...
