Re: Your First Buffett Show

8/26/04 Tinley Park. Took a bus sponsered by a bar in Chicago. Ex-wife slipped in beer getting off the bus. Smacked her head and broke a rib or two. She managed to make it thru the parking lot and the show with the booze keeping her from feeling the pain. After the show the bus left early leaving my...

As said by other posters its in the middle of all the activities and not too crowded. About an 1.5 hrs to Hatteras, close to Manteo, Jockey's Ridge, Wright Brothers, Restaurants etc. T...

Re: Memorial Day Concert Marathon

Maybe its's just me but 2 concert replays in a 12 hr period is not a marathon. I was hoping for an "All Jimmy Weekend." That's the way the weekends were in the past if I remember correctly. Makes the yard work/deck building etc that I was doing more enjoyable.

Re: Places to stay at the Outer Banks

Never been to the Northern beaches but have stayed in Kill Devil Hills and will again go this yr. I thought it was a great combination of not very crowded beach and plenty of things to do. It seemed to me the further south you go Waves/Rodanthe the less people but your certainly further away from so...

Maybe Jimmy stayed at this hotel outside of Berlin? It is next to a bike path after all.

Re: FL Keys / Key West

All the hotels/condo's/resorts will list specifically when their off season prices are. Usually things get pricier around Nov and cheaper mid-April. We went down this yr the last week in March and the weather was great. During the summer KW can be very hot and humid so if possible go for late winter...

Re: Who's going to ALPINE VALLEY 8-29-09!!??

I got 2 in the Pav after several failed attempts. I was not happy with the merger rumors but it seems they are already together. Went to Live Nation clicked get tickets and back to ticketmaster. I guess if they merge things will be even more pricey but possibly less confusing. Oh well, Alpine will t...

Re: What should the U.S. federal income tax structure be?

I'm for any tax plan that will reduce the amount of time doing taxes. I like the idea of some type of flat tax. Get rid of majority of deductions, credits, stipends to all. Go back to the gov't building roads and protecting the nation. Not legislating behavior and spending money on foolish pork proj...
