“Come Monday” is an all time favorite from when I was a newlywed. Absolutely love that song. Rest in peace, man.

“Buffett was one of the world's richest musicians, with a net worth of $1 billion as of 2023.” — Wikipedia

Funny, I always took him at his word. But evidently he didn't waste away in Margaritaville.

76 year olds never passed away until late in 2021, now they're dying in all 50 states.

I open many of my dance programs with a line accompanied by “Another Saturday Night”. It shall have new meaning going forward. RIP Jimmy!
