It's a fact of life, a matter of physics. It is simply impossible NOT to be a wonderful, happy, giving person when you spend a good part of your waking day listening to lyrics like "I got a roof over my head, someone to love me and a four poster bed and...I thank my lucky stars...", "...

You're a smart woman Smart Woman! I agree 100% that a Margaritaville would make a killing in Chicago - perhaps down by Navy Pier, or anywhere along the Lake Michigan lakefront! Yes - the Lake Front would be great. They could turn that restaurant/bar at North Ave beach (the one that is shaped like a...

Thanks to all for clearing that up. However, I disagree w/ Buffett's decision to limit Margaritaville Cafes to warmer locales. When I lived in Chicago, I thought a MC was just what the city needed in the wintertime! Would appreciate one in NYC now, although I don't think either a MC or a CIP would d...

CIP vs. Marg. Cafe

So this might be a boring topic, but does anyone know why Buffett has two chains of restaurants? It seems that Margaritaville Cafes are more fun, but the Cheeseburger restaurants have more locations. Does anyone know why, for example, he doesn't open a Marg. Cafe in the NY/NJ area instead of a CIP? ...

I love the pholks who say "ALL I have are two things..." I would be so psyched for even one thing!
So here's a question - other than lucky encounters with Jimmy after shows, etc., how does one go about getting Jimmy's autograph? eBay? :roll:

I can hardly wait! I was there on the Sat and loved the geographical references, as well as Lovely Cruise! Plus he didn't play Mental Floss (sorry, Jimmy, but that one just doesn't do it for me)

There are so many things blatantly stupid about this that it's not worth it to spend too much time on it, but I have to point out that the very premise of it is absurd. To say that Jimmy gets most of his money from touring is ridiculous. He only plays (much to our disappointment) about 30 shows a ye...

I forgot to mention this before - I have more trouble with the guy on the radio (NYC area) who said "Kozlowski paid $250,000, and all he could get was Jimmy Buffett!"

I'm thinking instead, "wow - what a bargain to get Jimmy to do a private concert!" I'll start saving up...

Just because Jimmy played at the Tyco party and is associated with Tyco in that way, doesn't mean he did anything wrong. Remember, the extravagance of the Tyco party isn't what got Kozlowski in trouble - it was that he used corporate funds to pay for an essentially personal party (the prosecutors al...

Jimmy looks much shorter than jackson in the 5:00 video as well - at the end they put their arms around each other and I though Jimmy looked like his 12 year old son, or something. Does anyone know anything about the people that Jimmy personally thanked, other than his wife and AJ, of course? I didn...

That seems like such a particular category - I can't imagine that they wouldn't win. Is there a Best Country Song in the Grammys? Why wouldn't they be nominated for that? I would think winning the CMA, they would be a lock for the Grammys as well, but then what do i know.

Another one: She's Got You:

Old version: "I've got your records, She's got you"
New version: "I've got your iPod, She's got you"
Also, I think he mixes up the she/he pronoun so both sexes can relate.
