With all the excitement of the upcoming tour, new cd, and good JB weather, I took the past few days to read "Tales from Margaritaville" again. What a great collection of stories!!!! Which is your favorite tale?

They were all really great, but I think the Tulluy Mars story was my favorite. It's been a while since I read the book, but the story was called Take Another Road, I think.

I'm pretty sure you're right, magnus, and that's my favorite, too (though they are ALL good).

Hmmmmmmm...I haven't read that in AGES, but the one tale that always stays in my memory is the one about Desdamona the Cosmic Baker.
My love is staying an anchor tied to you with that silver chain.

when the heck is the new book gonna come out, it seems like i have been reading forever that it was just around the corner?
I studied the life at sea, I studied the life in bars. Never passed my S.A.T.s so i thought I'd study extra hard.
