  • http://facebook Elaine King

    I BETTER NOT SEE THIS ON E-BAY NEXT WEEK !!!

  • Jean Larroux IV

    Imagine my surprise when a friend told me my picture was online today. Especially BuffetWorld.com, I am the kid in this picture! Jimmy was signing my guitar while in the process of teaching me to curse in French. I still have this guitar and I’m a huge Buffet Fan! This is crazy!!! I have this picture on my dad’s iphone. I can’t believe this..

  • http://www.listwithlarroux.com Jean F. Larroux, III

    Okay, unreal. A fellow ‘parrot-head’ text’d me today and said, “Hey your son’s photo is on buffettworld.com in the caption contest…” Sure ‘nuf! My son’s name is Jean Francois Larroux, IV. Buffett signed the guitar in french, “Play this guitar with all your heart…” When Jimmy heard my son’s great French name he asked him, “Hey Jean want me to teach you some curse words in French?” It was hilarious. We still have the guitar. No eBay. I’d sooner put my actual child on eBay (I have 3 of those). This was taken at the old Firedog Saloon in Bay St. Louis, Mississippi when Jimmy was filming the “Bama Breeze” video. I think the best caption for the photo would be something Biblical: “Train up a child in the way he should go and when he is old he will not depart from it…” Let it be written. Let it be done.

  • Colleen Nolan

    The caption should read – a “sign” of the times!

  • Kevin

  • Perry Mac

  • Steve Rosenbaum

    Jimmy, are you sure that you’re not going to lose these directions that I’m giving you to the party?

  • Nick Ragno

    Okay, I’ll explain it to you one more time. You are selling these candy bars for your school at $1 each. We relabel them to say “Margarittaville Bars” and sell them at all my concerts for $7 each. Your school still gets their $1 for each bar, but sells a million more bars, and we each get $3 apiece for each bar sold. And that young man, is what you call “marketing”.

  • Steve Rosenbaum

    My favorite drink? It’s easy. Here I’ll write it down for ya.

    It’s basically just good Caribbean rum, coconut water — the clear stuff from the coconut that you can now get in Whole Foods; not Coco Lopez — a fresh piece of lime, and lots of ice. That’s it. And if you lose this just go to margaritaville.com. It’s right there.

  • Money Man

    “Look kid, I don’t sign a damned thing for free. You either cough up the money or get the hell away from me. Don’t you know I’m a big phony? My persona is very caring and outgoing, but basically I’m a money hungy asshole.”
