  4. Dont think I don’t notice you scaring at my candy bar!!!

  7. Hey you must be the Rhumba Boy!

  8. “Ok, but I’m the kind your parents warned you about.”

  9. Okay, now you’re sure you won’t trade this signed guitar for a Justin Bieber signed I-Pod?

  10. Dear Mrs. Cathcart, please accept this signed guitar and excuse Tommy for missing Summerzcool….we went hat shopping!

  11. Come Monday you take this over to Desdemona at the space station and bake shop near Boomtown and she will give you a cheeseburger, some boat drinks and a fruitcake. Then you get on the bus and head back to Cincinnati.

  12. So you said this was the G string and this one here is E? Better label it so I don’t forget.

  13. So, you go left by the lighthouse and make a right past the tiki hut…

  14. My parents are going to “Freak” when I show them this!

  15. MY DAD WILL SHIT

  16. Wait. Wait. Slow down…What comes after ‘Nibblin on sponge cake?”

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

  18. 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..

  19. 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.

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

  21. So you’ll take a turn here at Margaritaville then head Southwest of Disorder

  22. ” Not only is this new Margaritaville superglue work great on wood, you should see it fix flipflops!”

  23. ” Not only does this new Margaritaville superglue work great on wood, you should see it fix flipflops!”

  24. I’m tellin’ ya, it’s 1974 in Key West me and Jerry Jeff were so wasted, we were trying to play our guitars like this.

  25. that’s Buffett with 2 t’s.

  26. With this note, your teacher will understand the meaning of ‘Math Suks’

  27. Okay, so you take a left at the Port of Indicision, go just past that One Particular Harbor and Margaritaville is just on the Right.

  28. Look it’s the Captain and the kid

  29. I can PROVE it isn’t lost! I”ll draw you a map to the shaker of salt, but watch out for those pop tops!

  30. Someday when I grow up to be as popular as you, I will sign autographs for my fin fans too Jimmy.

  31. Don’t worry, this tattoo won’t hurt one bit !

  32. The song is called Kaya…K, A, Y, A.

  50. Jimmy, are you sure this will get us chicks?

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

  52. 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”.

  53. Here’ya go Jimmy, my pen might work better than yours

  54. Jimmy, just make sure that I get my commission for this new hit song, ok?

  66. Hey your blocking my light!

  93. “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.”
