    Been a casual Jimmy fan for many years. When I was in college many years ago and before his popularity, he came to play. Tickets were $1.00. None of us knew who he was so no one went.

    With the advent of Sirius XM, Margaritaville is my usual listening, especially when on the boat.

    About six years ago, my daughter got us tickets for Christmas for his New Year show in Nashville. I proceeded to break my femur in November, but still managed to make the show, albeit on crutches.

    I guess Growing Older But Not Up is his tribute to us old farts trying youth sports.

    I rounded first, never thought of the worst
    As I studied the shortstop's position
    Crack went my leg like the shell of an egg
    Someone call a decent physician

    I'm no Pete Rose
    I can't pretend
    Though my mind is quite flexible
    These brittle bones don't bend

    I'm growing older but not up
    My metabolic rate is pleasantly stuck
    Let those winds of time blow over my head
    I'd rather die while I'm living than live while I'm dead

    Thanks for linking that.
    I have been in this State for 30 years and I am willing to admit that I am part of the problem.
