I know almost every Buffett song. As a wee lad in the '80s my parents consistently played:
  • James Taylor
  • Bob Dylan
  • Bonnie Raitt
  • Jackson Browne
  • CCR
  • Jimmy Buffett
  • Rolling Stones

It's weird hearing a Buffett song now (30 years later) and knowing the words.
Your parents. I hate you.

Re: Is Ted Cruz Satan? Discuss.

Nothing like a long, satisfying wonk. I need a smoke and a nap.

Carry on.
To me it would have just been "a helicopter". But I guess the color of the chopper matters to you. Did you cross the street?

I only noticed the color because I was on a rooftop bar, and the chopper was just barely above us height-wise. I did not change bar stools.

The coolest sight there is when a ocean going cargo ship passes by. How could anything that huge be built? Just an amazing sight.

I'm too appalled for a lyrical re line.

For those libertarians and "free-market" zealots who talk about the stranglehold of regulation burdening small business, please read this.

Re: Where life is beautiful all the time

So I'm back to thinking we need to swap Texas for Scotland. We'll all be happier. We'll have lunatics we like instead of lunatics with guns and they'll have oil and Tories.
