RIP Jimmy Buffett

[triplexxx]

"Margaritaville" singer Jimmy Buffett passed to heaven yesterday surrounded by family at 76.

His song evolved into a hospitality company that franchised restaurants, stores, and resorts on the beach, all in Jimmy's name, not to mention homes and vacation trips won by contestants on Wheel of Fortune, Jimmy being a good friend to Pat, Vanna, and the Wheel crew.

Rest well in the paradise of the next life Jimmy.

I honestly could never stand his music but I sure as hell respected this man’s hustle! Rest easy!

There was a period of time during my 'kareoke bar' days where you couldn't escape the bar without hearing "Margarittaville" one way or the other. This was that period of time where people went out as much as they could - Wednesday was "hump day" and a guaranteed bar night, Friday you'd meet up with everyone around 9 pm and do your thing and the weekends were parties.

Now I'm in bed by 9. :trolleye::lol: But Jimmy gave me the theme song for those hump day nights during Gen X's final-years of true routine-social-nights.
