In college a couple drinking buddies loved Jimmy Buffett. Could never understand why.

A few years later, at the University of Idaho, i had a bartending job.

The radio only played country music because Moscow, Idaho didn’t have a Rock station.

The owner had two cassette tapes. Can’t recall what the second one was, but the first one was “Changes in Latitudes, Changes in Attitudes”.

Before i became a Country music fan, Buffett’s tape was the go-to playlist. Constantly, it seems in retrospect. Etched in my soul i guess.

Fell in love with the vibe.

Buffett’s songs reminded me of Florida, palm trees, the ocean, and sunshine.

Next thing you know, i’m in a Washington State University (WSU) (Go Cougs) record shop and went to the album bin that started with B and found a couple Jimmy Buffett albums.

Don’t recall which album was my first, but i quickly wore it out, playing it constantly and being mesmerized by Buffett’s style.

Before you know it, i owned everything he released. In 1983 that was 10 albums.

Note: We lived on WSU’s campus in an all-women dorm. Cheryl was a Residense Hall Director and lived on-site. It’s where we lived a year before and a year after we married. Eight miles across the state line, i attended University of Idaho and worked at a novel hot-tub rental business with a beer and wine bar.

This could be amazing

The comedian is great.

Not sure about her show. Not compelled enough to check it out.

What led to watching the trailer was the marketing soundbites. They hooked me.

She seems comfortable in her skin.

This is a major battle each of us has to live with.

Here’s to you winning more battles than you lose.
