 Jimmy Buffett Week! July 22-24, (not the 17th)
Duffer Parrot Heads

The Jimmy Buffett week end started with a small group of Duffers at the Thursday concert. Beevis Coughenour, Beak, Frank, Klinger, Son of Frank, 2 Son-in-laws of Frank, Daughter of Frank, Sue, and a Wheezer look-a-like went to the Jimmy Buffett concert. The highlight of the concert took place when Klinger went in to the men's room to defecate. I know, that's not much of a highlight, but it gets better. As Bill was sitting in the stall and missing songs like "I Don't know where I'm gona go when the volcano blows", some lady, scratch that, some woman came into the men's room to seek a stall that didn't have a long line. She started to hassle Bill because he was taking too long and she wanted him to get out of there. Beak was busy taking a survey of Parrot heads after he heard them sing along with Jimmy, to a song that wished for a penciled in mustache like the Boston Blackie kind. The one question survey was "Who is Boston Blackie?" He got a lot of blank stares from people under 45. He made some friends, young and old, that came looking for him later in the evening and again on Saturday.

Saturday
 The Jimmy Buffett week end continued on Saturday afternoon as Boris and Tweedy brought their spouses to join the Duffer Parrot Heads. Boris also brought his friends Mr. and Mrs. Gay and they told us what happened when they went to a restaurant and requested a table for 4. The announcement that bellowed over the loud speaker, "table for Gay party of four is ready", generated a lot of stares and offers. Mr. Gay had a parrot mask that really turned on the female parrot heads. I saw one flashing her coconuts at him. The Party featured the belated presentation of the "King's Meaningless Trophy" to Chris "Berserk". His wife Amy kept her sunglasses on during the presentation ceremony and photo session. We don't know if she was hiding tears of joy or trying not to be recognized. After the presentation ceremony, 24 happy people and several large coolers were loaded on to a yellow school bus that headed for the concert. The atmosphere was similar to a Duffer road trip with women. Singing Buffett songs all of the way into the parking lot.
Beak rests his arm on the Wheezer look-a-like.
How do you beat the heat? put your feet in cold water and have a cold beer.
One of these guys is about to break his chair. Can you guess which one? See the next frame for the answer.
If you guessed the Wheezer Look-a-like, you are wrong. Mike crushed his lawn chair like a beer cup. The Wheezer chair sunk several inches into the sod, but never broke.
The highlight of the Saturday night concert, took place when we got off of the bus and entered the park. Frank's wife Jan was busted by security for trying to smuggle water into the park while 3 of her children passed through the gates with a fifth of rum. That is what a Buffett concert is all about. Don't try to drink water.
