That is so funny that you just posted this. I literally just left my Dad and Step Mom's house and they told me this same thing and that she was no longer going to even socially drink because of this study. And it got me wondering would it be better to live till you're 90 and not do anything unhealth...

You gotta obey the cops it's as simple as that. They didn't shoot him, they used a tool to help subdue him because he was out of control.

Someone please tell me which part of these lyrics are not depressing, because apparently I am stupid and clueless according to the resident music snob. I had never heard the extra verse about his Dad, but it's even more depressing than the rest of the song. Glory Days Lyrics Artist(Band):Bruce Sprin...

Thanks for calling me stupid Schooner, this coming from someone whose tagline says that the torch has been passed from Jimmy Buffett to Kenney Chesney really says it all. I really don't see the reason for name calling. Glory Days is about people whose better days of their lives have already passed t...

It has an upbeat tempo, but the lyrics are depressing as hell, that's why I gave up Springsteen music in college and got into Buffett, Springsteen's songs made me want to kill myself and Buffett's make me want to go to the ocean and have a party....you do the Math. Jimmy has so many great songs that...

Wow...his songs get even better if you do a little research on them and put some more of the pieces together. We should start like a book club type deal where we pick out one song and disect it and research all we can and then have a discussion on it. I might have to much time on my hands. :roll:

What Artists have more albums out than Jimmy?

I count about 27 albums of new material that Jimmy has released, obviously there are artists out there that have more, but I can't think of any off the top of my head, especially current artists, maybe George Strait or someone like that. Can you think of others?

I wasn't going to be the one to bring this back to the top, but since Oysters did I will comment. I personally have never called anyone names or said that Bush sucks or any of that nonsense and I hate what happened at COBO on the political thread. But for some reason when I see an article that is in...

If your livelihood is based on Sponsors paying for advertising, it doesn't take a genius to realize you have to be a little careful about attacking innocent people for no reason and calling them whores. It really shouldn't surprise anyone that when the sponsors bail, you're probably going to get fir...

This whole thread is based on an untrue premise. There have been 44 American troops killed in Iraq already in March which equals about 100 a month which is about normal with or without the troop surge. So the first sign of some so called progress turns out to be another twisted scam by this administ...

I am against the surge, but if these numbers hold and the killing of our soldiers stays down, I can be man enough to admit George was right and he is after all a war time president.
