Re: Jimmy Buffett Sponsors New Jamaican Iditarod Dogsled Team

There is a great video of Newton on Margaritaville.com as well as the just released CMT video.

Newton is holding steady at 48 out of 57. The front runner has crossed the line.

Re: Dumb question about boat planes

In the Photo section of Buffettnews, there is a picture of the Grumman Goose in Jimmy Buffett's Hanger in Sag Harbor, NY. I used to see this plane all the time when I would drive by there on my way back from Montauk. I had forgotten about that picture. I just checked and it was posted in September,...

Re: Coming to Boston in April

Since I live in the Boston area I don't stay in hotels. But if you check out Priceline there are several hotels right now listed in the $130/night range. But in April they will be more. The closest one to BU that I saw was the Holiday Inn at Beacon Hill for $129. But keep in mind that it is soooooo ...

Re: Parrothead Lesson 2 - Jimmy's Escape to The South Seas

when do you expect number 3? I'm going to try to post one every Thursday. There are 11 that are already prepared, and I'll just post one per week. Is this something that you found somewhere else, or are you creating this for inclusion in a publication (book, magazine article, whatever) of your own?...

Re: Flip Flop Heaven

I think their flip flops are so cute, but I just can't wear them. My toes go right off the end, same with crocs and several other brands. I think they're all made for wide feet...and I have skinny feet so they fit me differently. :-? :( I know that we all want to support Jimmy and his products as m...

Re: Dumb question about boat planes

In my quest to understand about "boat planes" I found some more interesting ones. The UGLY plane was project by the Russians to fight Polaris submarines in the 50's and 60's. Never finished so this one is just sitting in a field somewhere in Russia. Got any more on that one? That's cool a...
