Read my "Jimmy gives me wings" message from a couple of days ago. His songs transported us from NoCal to SoCal and back. I loaded the CD deck with all I could get my hands on: the ones I loved best were: mmim, and fruitcakes. There were a lot of others, but those were the standouts. Next t...

I'm waiting too

Watching the game ... hoping for a JB sighting. Hope the 7th stretch rumor is true. Thought I might see some SportsPage pix posted, so checked in. Guess the Marlins will be my team since the A's are out, and Dusty Baker is on my **** list,

Jimmy's songs give me wings

Hubby and I are just back from LA. We do that god-awful drive down Interstate 5 through the center of Ca often. (Our "keets" are there now). if any of you Parrotheads have done this trip, you know long and deadly boring it is. But Jimmy gets us through it. Listened to JB the entire trip do...

Just want to say Amen to the good words that redwinemaker wrote. Despite the sad news, it was so good to finally meet some of you. As I mentioned, I am not a frequent poster ... only for special topics. This is one of them. Hubby and I didn't stay for the Reefers ... left for Los Gatos and some grea...

Complaints

Sitting here in front of a computer ... it's so easy to read the negatives and add a few of your own. But then: being at the magic that is a Jimmy Buffett concert ... singing, dancing .... whatever (within boundaries) and generally having such a "I love life attitude" ... what a difference...

Thanks

Made mojitos last night. Found out that you have to adjust certain ingredients. Finally got it perfect. What a great summer drink. Found out that is was Hemingway's favorite, and originated in Cuba. Bet you all knew this already! Cheers! :D

You can't go wrong with Cameron ( JB's youngest). A generic name for boy or girl. Did you know that JB's grandpa was from Cape Breton? I am an old lady Parrothead living in California, but I was born and raised in Nova Scotia and it will always be "home'.

Is there anyone out there who has a SF Chronicle password that they would share? I actually subscribed this morning, thinking how I would be able to obtain pre-sale tickets. Foiled again! The confirmation came through, but NO password.

I am also in need of a password. I subscribed this morning, and although I received a confirmation, it didn't include a password. Devious devils aren't they? I'm getting desperate!

Here I am ... an old Hippy. I remember quite fondly the days of having a 'joint'. It was all great, but I'm past it. I am now an aging parrothead, and rely on one or two Margaritas. I see and smell clouds of smoke, and near-sex at all the concerts. But not for me now. Does that sound depressing? Not...

Any of the songs in 'Don't Stop The Carnival' are amazing. The fact that Jimmy was able to take a novel and turn it into a musical is awesome. I have always loved any novel by Herman Wouk. When I read that he was a collaborator with Jimmy Buffett on turning this book into a musical, I was intrigued....
