Jimmy Buffett Concert Report MGM Grand Garden Arena May 16, 2009

Excellent concert, packed arena, a great setting for the performance. The screen behind the set had various beaches, boats, and sunsets. The new songs were rockin' (Summerzcool, I Feel Like Goin' Surfing in a Hurricane) and A Lot To Drink About is better reporting on the Wall Street crooks than anything on CNBC.

VIVA Las Vegas PARROTHEADS!!!!!

The Bellagio.... Friday

>>>>> SATURDAY <<<<<<

Fins up Parrotheads, we are goin' to be partying just like Bubba does on a Livingston Saturday Night on the Strip in Vegas!!!





I wish I had a pencil thin mustache.....



I don't know where I'm gonna go when the volcano blows.....



Fins to the left, fins to the right, and your the only bait in town....



I took off for a week-end last month just to try and recall the whole year,
so many places and so many faces, wonderin' where they disappeared.....



Boat drinks, the boys in the band ordered boat drinks......



The weather is here, wish you were beautiful.....



We are the people our parents warned us about.......



There's a cowboy in the jungle, and he looks so out of place, with his shrimpskin boots and his cheap cheroots, and his skin as white as paste.....



There's a woman goin' crazy on Caroline street......





Blew out my flip flop, stepped on pop top,

cut my heel had to cruise on back home,

but there booze in the blender,

and soon it will render,

that frozen concoction that helps me hang on.........

INDISPUTABLE MATH LOGIC

INDISPUTABLE MATHEMATICAL LOGIC (liberals won't understand...... because its logic)
(This comes from 2 math teachers with a combined total of 70 yrs. experience.)

This is a strictly mathematical viewpoint... it goes like this:

What makes 100%? What does it mean to give MORE than 100%? Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%? We have all been to those meetings where someone wants you to give over 100%. How about achieving 103%? What makes up 100% in life?


Here's a little mathematical formula that might help you answer these questions:
If:A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
are represented as: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26.

Then:

H-A-R-D-W-O-R-K 8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11 = 98%

and

K-N-O-W- L-E-D-G-E 11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5 = 96%

But ,

A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E 1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5 = 100%

And,

B-U-L-L-S-H-I-T 2+21+12+12+19+8+9+20 = 103%

AND, look how far ass kissing will take you.

A-S-S-K-I-S -S-I-N-G 1+19+19+11+9+19+19+9+14+7 = 118%


So, one can conclude with mathematical certainty, that while HARD WORK and KNOWLEDGE will get you close, and ATTITUDE will get you there, its the BULLSHIT and ASS KISSING that will put you over the TOP!



'REMEMBER SOME PEOPLE ARE ALIVE SIMPLY BECAUSE IT IS ILLEGAL TO SHOOT THEM'

Breathe In... Breathe Out......Move On

Breathe In, Breathe Out, Move On
(Jimmy Buffett/Matt Betton)

I bought a cheap watch from the crazy man
Floating down Canal
It doesn’t use numbers or moving hands
It always just says now
Now you may be thinking that I was had
But this watch is never wrong
And if I have trouble the warranty said
Breathe in, breathe out, move on

And it rained
It was nothing really new
And it blew
We’ve seen all that before
And it poured
The earth began to strain
Pontchartrain Leaking through the door
Tides at war

If a hurricane doesn’t leave you dead
It will make you strong
Don’t try to explain just nod your head
Breathe in, breathe out, move on

And it rained
It was nothing really new
And it blew
We’ve seen all that before
And it poured
The earth began to strain
Ponchartrain Buried the Ninth Ward
To the second floor

According to my watch the time is now
The past is dead and gone
Don’t try to shake it just nod your head
Breathe in, breathe out, move on
Don’t try to explain it just bow your head
Breathe in.......breathe out....... move on
