Buffett should be boycotted for doing a concert for Wal - Mart! He is proving to all of us that he does not have a social contains and that all he cares about is money! It is because of companies like Wal – Mart that the US economy is in the tank! By performing for Wal – Mart he is showing that he supports a company that has the most employees living below the poverty line, knowingly hires illegal aliens, ships your American jobs over seas, and that is just a small portion of Wal – Marts ills!

do you own a car?? what kind of computer do you have? Are you aware that Wal Mart is not the only company that ships jobs overseas?
Well...(said in my best Bubba voice) I've been on sabbatical.

My Father is working in Singapore right now due to an American company shipping jobs overseas. ALL COMPANIES ARE DOING THIS, WAL-MART IS JUST ONE OF THEM. And please, do you really think Jimmy thought to himself, "Hmmm, this company supports putting American jobs overseas, I like that! I think I will play for them!"
You are right about one thing that it is about the money. I look at it this way, Jimmy is genius business man who happens to play guitar. Do you blame him? I dont.

I could certainly never be called a fan of Wally-World but something should be said for a company that is (I believe) the largest employer in the US and has produced considerable wealth for many of their shareholders AND employees. True most of their employees are hourly and will perhaps never get rich but isn't that the case for pretty much every retailer in this country?
Anyway, this thread was certainly not intended to become political but I guess everyone has an opinion, right?
Hey, they are serving up Jimmy Buffett in a 70,000+ seat stadium FREE and OPEN to the PUBLIC. I wish more companies were that unconscionable...oh sorry, I meant "unCONTAINable"

I guess Paris Hilton was right, they sell wall stuff at Wall [sic] Mart.
Thanks for the morning laugh LIPH!!!
My two cents on Wally World. They provided a service that this country was apparently hungry for. For those that complain about their wages there...don't work there. For those that make the argument that it is the only place they can get a job...educate yourself and get a better job. For those that say they can't afford college...do what I did. I worked almost full time and took out a boat load of loans. If you have a problem with their philosophy...don't shop there.
Some people never find it, some only pretend; but me, I just want to live happily ever after every now and then.

Exactly, Wal-Mart is doing a great thing by employing people who arent fortunate enough to get a higher education, or are unfortunately disabled. I work for Target (I'm a step below executive, almost there!), and obviously Wal-Mart isnt my favorite store around, they are our biggest competitor. I do have to say though, they provide work for those who normally cant find work, and are an equal opportunity employer. Could this country do without Wal-Mart? I'm sure we could, but it is a benefit to the less fortunate of our population.
Oh and yeah, a free Jimmy Buffett concert open to the public (hopefully) is F****ng awesome. So do give them some credit.

Dr. Jonas Salk did a great thing for people.
But anyway, I don't see cheap prices for the things I normally purchase at this store. On the other hand, I have more choices for shopping in this area.
In conclusion,
It ain't about the talent
It ain't about the skill
It's all about the silly stupid ***** deal!
That's why I never take his music to heart.
Love the "Overkill" reference!! One of my favorite songs!!

My mom won regional associate of the year for her region at Sam's club and she got invited as a VIP guest to the meeting next month, I will call her this weekend and find out if she knows anything and/or if she is going, if not I might ask for her VIP passes and go myself

It's been many years but I know it well. We moved away from Fayette Nam back in 1990 but it was always the best place in town to get a good chimichanga and a great margarita. Glad to know they're still servin' it up!
I still can't believe the MAN is coming to my home town and I won't be there to welcome him in fine Razorback style. I'm envious Jon
Any word as to whether Radio Margaritaville is going to broadcast the concert?
