(PghLouise: I'll bet you he was afraid to tell his club that we're coming, too!) MrMinisterMan: Tell your club members that they can look at 'MargaritaStock' as one of their philanthropic activities! Kind of like a cornfield United Nations delegates meeting. Good luck, you've got a lot of 'splaining to do!
I KNOW.....I HAVE A FEELING M OF M (WHICH IS WHAT TOBORO REFERS TO HIM AS) IS GOING TO TAKE HIS WIFE ON A VERRRRRY NICE VACATION, GET HER DRUNK THEN TELL HER ALL ABOUT THIS STUFF HE'S PLANNING...I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT HE'S GONNA TELL THE PEOPLE OF IOWA, YOURS IS A GOOD ONE THOUGH. IT MIGHT BE A GOOD IDEA TO INFORM THE WHOLE STATE CUZ WE'LL BE HAILING IN FROM ALL DIRECTIONS FOR THIS FEEDING FRENZY!!!!!!
HEY, EVEN THO I'VE NEVER BEEN TO TRACTOR PULL OR MUD RASSLIN EVENTS, IT WOULDN'T BE BENEATH ME AT ALL TO ENJOY THAT SORTA THING.....IN FACT, WHILE I'M OUT THERE, I WOULD LIKE TO DO SOME COW TIPPIN IF POSSIBLE!!!!! I DRAW THE LINE AT COW DUNG SLINGIN AND CORN HUSKIN, WELL ON SECOND THOUGHT THAT COW DUNG THING COULD BE LIKE SKEET SHOOTIN?????

PghLouise: truck & tractor pulls can actually be fun, not as much fun as a good old-fashioned demolition derby, you understand! --dung slingin'- I don't think so. --corn huskin'- is it for dinner? okey-dokey by me! --mud rasslin- maybe, but as a spectator sport only, thank you very much.
MinisterMan: any festivals,carnivals,parades,or fairs in your area? (you do seem to be taking quite a bit of grief from Louise & I, do you mind??)

OHIO & LOUISE:
ANYBODY THAT WANTS TO GO TO TRACTOR PULLS, MUD WRESTLING, COW DUNG SLINGING, WHATEVER-LET THEM HAVE AT IT! AS FOR ME, I'LL BE ASSOCIATING WITH PARROTHEADS, LISTENING TO MR. BUFFETT, AND HAVING BOAT DRINKS/CORONAS, OR BOTH (NOT TO MENTION PROBABLY ELEVENTEEN DOZEN CHEESEBURGERS). NO, I DON'T MIND THE GRIEF, REMEMBER WHAT I DO FOR A LIVING. AND AGAIN, LEST ANY OF THE NEWCOMERS GET THE WRONG IDEA, "MARGARITA STOCK" WILL NOT BE AT MY HOUSE-I'M TRYING TO GET THE USE OF THE BAR WHERE WE HAVE OUR PARROTHEAD CLUB MEETINGS. RIGHT NOW IT LOOKS GOOD, BUT IT'S A YEAR AWAY, LOTSA TIME. AND, YES, THERE ARE FAIRS AND PARADES GOING ON PRETTY MUCH ALL SUMMER LONG. A MINOR LEAGUE BASEBALL TEAM HERE, TOO, FOR THE SPORTS FANS. AND YOU WOULD PROBABLY WANT TO CHECK OUT THE AMANA COLONIES, TOO. AGAIN, IT'S A YEAR AWAY, I'LL GET SNAIL MAIL ADDRESSES OF THE GANG AND SEND BROCHOURES. TRUST ME, PEOPLE, YOU CAN HAVE FUN IN IOWA. IF ANYONE HAS MORE FUN THAN ME (ANYONE BESIDES BILL CLINTON AND JIMMY BUFFETT, THAT IS), THEY BELONG IN JAIL!

well, MinisterOfMargarita/LeisureDirector Man, you're just going to have to line up some cells. I have a feeling that WD/HF, GaBuff, Thelma & Louise, & I are going to give you a run for your money!! yea, brochures, I love brochures!! ummmm- what's an 'amana' colony? Do ya'll have big parks full of refrigerators, or what?
...there's too much to see waiting in front of me...

Minister- now this here gig you are planing-well, its gonna take more than your average Iowa bar to hold all us parrotheads. At least once word gets out, all your buddies are gonna haveta show up just to direct us into the parking lot. Am I understanding this correctly, you haven't told your wife about this yet? How long you been married? Is Iowa an alimony state? Have you considered child support once she kicks your rumbus outta there? Man, this thing could be big Minister! Can you really tip over a cow if you sneak up on it while its sleepin? Once Jimmy gets wind of what yer up to, bet he'll wanna come. Be cool! Margaritastock-sounds nice don't it? "And I hope Anita Bryant never ever does one a my songs"!
Fins up my friend!

TO BEACHBRUCE:
I ACTUALLY DON'T MIND ANITA BRYANT DOING ONE OF "OUR" SONGS, BUT THAT WINDBAG BRA-BRA STRIESAND, T-H-A-T IS A DIFFERENT STORY (ACTUALLY, WHEN I'M SINGING THE WORDS TO "MANANA," I SUBSTITUTE ANITAS' NAME AND SING BRA-BRA S. INSTEAD-$#@* LIBERAL!).
HEY-BUD, YOU JUST GET YOUR BUNS' (AND THE REST OF YOUR BODY) TO IOWA, AND YOU'LL BE TAKEN CARE OF. MS. M WON'T MIND YOUR PRESENCE HERE, YOU MUST BRING MRS.BEACH, TOO., ONLY THING MS. M WILL INSIST ON, IS THAT WE SMOKE OUR CIGARS ON THE OUTSIDE DECK. NO PROBLEM, MON!

Minister-Can do, smoke them stoggies on the back porch that is. Now convincing my wife to come along on the trip would be like pullin teeth. Although she has been with me for about 4 of my fun days to Jimmy's concerts, I guess my enthusiasm is just to much for her to take. Course I been fortunate enuf to fly to the last two shows in a Cessna 182 Skyhawk. Think that scares the @#$# outta her. Will try to convince my pilot friend to fly up for Margaritastock. Must have this on a weekend so we have maximum attendance dude, doncha know? Keep them Fins up!
Is that a serious question? (Sorry -- I'm old). She's a former Miss America (WAYYYY former), who also had something of a career touting Florida orange juice in the (somebody help me) -- 60's -- 70's? Very conservative & I seem to recall that one of her big political claims to fame was a rather virulent campaign against homosexuality (& I believe -- again, somebody help me out-- it was centered in Dade County), though that's been a while -- is she still around?
YEP, OHIO'S RIGHT...GET EM READY AND TELL AUNT BEE I WOULD LIKE MY EGGS OVER EASY!!!
I THINK I'LL STICK WITH YOU ON OUR ORIGINAL IDEA, LET'S JUST ALL PARTY WITH THE PARROTHEADS AND AS WE'RE BEING POLICE ESCORTED FROM IOWA, MAYBE THEY'LL LET US STOP OFF AND DO SOME SIGHTSEEING BEFORE THEY GIVE US THE PERMANENT BOOT. OHIO, I GUESS 2002 WILL SEE US HAVING OUR OHIOFEST AT YOUR JOINT?
OHIO: IS IT BECAUSE WE'RE BOTH FROM THE SAME STATE THAT WE THINK ALIKE OR WHAT? YA TOOK THE "AMANA" WORDS RIGHT OUT OF MY MOUTH.
WHEN I TAKE MY SISTER BACK TO NEBRASKA AFTER THE CONCERTS HERE, I'M GONNA TIP ME A COW IF IT'S THE LAST THING I DO!! I HAVE BEEN JUST DYING TO KNOW IF IT WORKS! SINCE SHE LIVES OUT IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE THERE, I TOLD HER WHEN I VISIT I WON'T RENT MYSELF A CAR TO GET AROUND, CALL RENT-A-COW, I WANT AIR CONDITIONING AND 8 "HORSEPOWER". SADDLE THAT BABY UP AND IT'LL GET ME TO WHERE I NEED TO GO.
MRMINISTERMAN: I'VE GOT A QUESTION FOR YOU...DOES YOUR WIFE LIKE JIMMY'S MUSIC? CUZ IF SHE DOESN'T WE MAY HAVE TO "BAPTIZE" HER INTO PARROTHEADISM.
I DON'T WANNA OFFEND ANYONE HERE, BUT COULD WE NOT BRING ANY ANITA BRYANTS OR BAABAA STREISAND'S MUSIC? NOTHING BUT JIMMY MUSIC ALL WEEK LONG. MINISTER, DOES THE JAIL HAVE A DECENT STEREO SYSTEM...CD PLAYER...JUKEBOX WITH ALL JIMMY CD'S?

WD: You got everything Anita pretty close. I'm not sure when she won her crown, but the whole orange juice spokesman thing was in the '70's. She had a passable (?) singing voice and had stints on Merv Griffin, et al. (SonOfA- so help me- don't you DARE ask who Merv Griffin is!) She never had any original work that I know of, just did covers and hymns. JB makes a reference to 'I hope Anita Bryant never does one of my songs' -- I think it was on 'Bob Roberts...'. Somebody help me out here---
Louise: oh my- 'rent-a-cow' - you're sooo bad! (MofM hasn't fessed up yet- has he? hmmm, musta been really bad!)
...sometimes I see me as an old manatee...

Dallas and Minister,
While at Margarita Stock, we can start up a self-help support group with our respective spouses: "Why I'm Not a Parrothead or What's Wrong With Me?". Maybe they can conquer their shortcomings together and then join the phlock.

ELIZABETH:
MINE LIKES JIMMY BUFFETT-SHE'S JUST NOT THE FANATIC THAT I AM (HER FAVORITE CDs ARE FLORIDAYS, OFF TO SEE THE LIZARD, AND THE "BOATS" CD FROM THE BOX SET). MAYBE WHEN YOU'RE HERE YOU AND I CAN WORK ON HER, AND HOPEFULLY BRING HER UP TO OUR LEVEL (OTHER THAN THAT ONE FLAW, SHE'S PRACTICALLY PERFECT).

A CESSNA 182 SKYHAWK?!? AND AWHILE BACK YOU SAID M-Y LIFE WAS EXCITING?!?
HEY, PAL, MY BOSS IS UP IN CANADA RIGHT NOW ON A FISHING EXCURSION, AND WHILE THERE, HE'S GOING TO PICK UP A BUNCH OF CUBAN CIGARS (THEY'RE LEGAL IN CANADA). WHEN HE COMES BACK, HE'LL KEEP THEM IN HIS HUMIDOR, AND WHEN YOU GET HERE, WE'LL GRAB US A FEW OF THOSE, A FEW CASES OF CORONA, AND RE-WRITE THE BOOK. WHAT DO YOU SAY? BRING YOUR MRS., TOO. YOU'RE ALWAYS WELCOME IN THIS HOUSE!!!
(HOW ABOUT YOU AND I START "MARGARITA STOCK" IN FEBRUARY, AND WHEN EVERYONE ELSE GETS HERE, THEY CAN HOP ON AT WHATEVER POINT WE'RE AT (OR ARE YOU STILL GOING TO TRY TO CONVINCE ME THAT IT COSTS MONEY TO SEND A KID TO COLLEGE).
"I hope Anita Bryant never does one of my songs" is from Manana. I don't post very often, but I follow you guys all day long. You seem like a great bunch.

JuicyFruit: Phins up, welcome aboard, & thank you! I can here him saying the line in my head, but, for the life of me, I couldn't remember what song. Then, after I posted it, I started thinking maybe it was an intro line off of one of the live albums. Yikes, I was going a little fruity! Please hop in any old time, love to hear from you! Don't forget, we have 'MargaritaStock' & a wedding (or something like one- at least the reception part- we're still looking for a groom) coming up. See PghPirate for M-Stock and LisaD. for the wedding. (& again- thanks for the memory help!)
...quietly making noise...
