He was a kodiak lookin fella bout 19 feet tall he rambled up over the hill spectin me to do one of two things: flip or fly, I didnt do either one. it hung him up. he starts sniffin round
Dy tryin to smell fear, but he aint gonna smell no fear, cause Im gods own drunk and a fearless man. it hung him up. he looked me right in my eyes and my eyes was a lot redder than his was.
Ung him up.

Parilly in the moonlight.) I gave him another and another and another fore I knew it, hed downed eight of em and commenced to do the bear dance. two sniffs, a snort, a fly, a turn
A grunt; and it was so simple like the jitterbug it plumb evaded me.
And we worked ourselves into a tumultuous uproar and is awful tired, went over to the hillside, and I laid down, went to sleep, slept for four hours, and dreamt me some tremulous dreams and whe

Jimmy Buffett (1946-2023) was an American singer-songwriter, musician, and author known for his "Parrothead" style of music, which blends elements of country, folk, rock, and calypso. Born in Pascagoula, Mississippi, Buffett spent his childhood in various locations across the United States before settling in Key West, Florida, where he began his musical career in the 1970s. His success is attributed to songs like "Margaritaville", "Come Monday", and "Cheeseburger in Paradise", which made Buffett a cultural icon associated with a relaxed and idyllic atmosphere. Besides music, Buffett wrote several novels and non-fiction books, including the bestseller "A Pirate Looks at Forty". His music and personality inspired a large fan base, the "Parrotheads", who celebrate simple living and a love for vacations. Buffett died in 2023 at the age of 76.
