If you got to sit and talk with Buffett and he agreed to answer any question you had about his life with complete honesty...what would you want to know about him?

I would ask him if all the hype is legit? I.E. Does he actually spend his time in all the places he sings about?

Hmmmmm.... does he find us as amusing as we find ourselves???

Is he tired of the 'life' yet??

And does he know how much his music has meant, and still means, to us??

I asked the question...but never answered it...
I would ask Jimmy if he is happy in his home life...with his wife and kids...if he gets the normal, everyday pleasures that we "regular" people get out of life. I would love to know that he tucks his kids into bed and kisses his wife good bye when he leaves for work...and I would love to know that he is truly happy with what matters most...your family.

I would ask him if he wants my ex-girlfriend's cat... Actually, does anyone in here want him?? He sheds like crazy, climbs all over you and has the appetite of a Tyrannosaurus Rex in heat. What more could one want in a pet??? Let me know...

PS - Here's his picture. Ewwwwww....

I'd ask Jimmy if he read the poem I wrote under "Compose a Poem" cause I never got any feedback....(can I kill a thread or what??) and then I'd ask him for his address so I can send him the directions to my wedding. Time is running short and I know he must be going crazy wondering how he's gonna find the place!!!!!!!! :o :o :wink:

I would ask him if he would like to play a few songs on guitar with me back at my place, and videotape it so my friends would believe me!

I would have a few questions, this is an outstanding thread, by the way!!
1) How hard was it to adopt Cameron and do you think of him as your very own? ( I would!)
2) Are you allowing your children to be Catholic even though you kinda got sick of it?
3)Do you ever have "dorky" moments like the rest of us, or are you a consummate "bitchin'" guy?
Those are my questions I would love to ask Jimmy.
