Well, duh!
(so does surf casting, by the by....)

I knew this addiction would eventually payoff

If you could surf cast while petting a cat and listening to Jimmy Buffett you could live forever.

Well looks like someone did a study on something we already know!

Listening to Buffett music reduces STRESS!!!!

Glad to see such an important study was funded.

Maybe that explains the increase in ticket prices

Petting a kitty usually makes me happy. What? You were talking about animals? Never mind

It is also comfortating to know that Jimmy covering other's work.... actually causes stress!

However, The American Heart Association recommends caution for patients who indulge in listening to more saucy selections such as "Bank of Bad Habits".

Last year the AHA published guidance to doctors advising them especially not to prescribe listening to "Why Don't We Get Drunk And Screw" as a way to ward off heart attacks.

This is my first addition with positve long term effects!

Please, someone prove me wrong but methinks this be an April Fools hoax. I googled the University and came up blank. Plus, check the link it's to "rashmagazine," not the BBC page you get from the link.
PLEASE, PROVE ME WRONG, PLEASE

J.LeP,

I totally made that up. I didn't intend for anyone to really think it was serious. Ever since discovering Jimmy's music, books and philosophy, I've wanted to dedicate a humor page referencing to how much healthier I feel inside and out. Sorry... but it's neither April Fools nor serious. Just a little something that I put together to put into words what I think we all knew already. Take care.

By the way "Lance Larimore University" was a reference to the original Remittance Man, Lance Larimore III, as introduced to us in Jimmy's short story "You Can't Take It With You".

No wonder the Circulation search for the original abstract and article came up empty. Nice April Fool's joke -- even if it wasn't intended as such!

just when I was thinking I could claim my JB music purchases on my insurance.

This seemed to be aimed at men so, for us older women & I can testify...JB music helps the ol' change of life thingy. And my hubby will testify he is sure of it because he is still alive!! HA HA When I get to feeling depressed...I go to my Margarita room & chill ...where my pC is to check on BN, play music, have a dink or not & just relax. I emerge a better woman instead of a bitter woman.

MAN, I should live til I am 90
