Significa might be more like it. After all, when it comes to the songs of Jimmy Buffett and to those who enjoy them, not a single syllable seems trivial about the lyrics. Everything is significant; even the goofiest things. That's the reason why Nordstrom first put together this book of questions based on absolutely nothing other than the words in Jimmy's music. Nordstrom's simple plan was this: If Jimmy doesn't sing it, then I simply won't ask about it. And because every true Parrot Head knows by heart the words to every one of Jimmy's songs, it only follows that you must know the answers to these questions, as well. Just as time and tide wait for no man, though, Jimmy wasn't about to sit still for Nordstrom. Since the very first edition of this book way back in the last millennium, Jimmy's cranked out a few more albums, compiled some performances on screens of all sizes, written more than a few best-selling books, and even brought home a music award or two, all of which are entwined with his lyrics like vines around some mahogany tree deep in a tropical jungle. And so, with this tenth edition, Nordstrom's not only posing his 1001 questions promised on this cover, but also asking a few score more about the lyrical connections to everything else that Jimmy has been up to. As you thumb through these pages, then, you'll be pleasantly surprised to see how much you really do know by heart. And you'll happily discover that all of those hours spent listening to Jimmy's music at last have found a practical purpose.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50213891735825,"sku":"CIN1883684196G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51056985276689,"sku":"NIN9781883684198","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":52819631800593,"sku":"CIN1883684196VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52848718446865,"sku":"GOR014639404","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1883684196.jpg?v=1750899317"},{"product_id":"essential-book-of-boat-drinks-book-olaf-nordstrom-9781883684471","title":"The Essential Book Of Boat Drinks","description":"For more than a decade, the hardcover edition of this Parrothead favorite has been available only at Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville stores, as well as through their website. But now this fifth edition of The Essential Book of Boat Drinks has not only been updated, but also expanded in a softcover format. You don't need to own either a boat or a blender to enjoy the stuff in this book.

Accepting the advice to write what you know about, Jimmy's spent more than forty years telling Parrotheads quite a bit of what he knows: places he's been, books he's read, drinks he's imbibed, and, yes, even food that he has eaten. In fact, Jimmy has set out quite a buffet for Parrotheads who tend to eat up his every word. As a literary remora of sorts, feeding off the crumbs of Jimmy's writings, Nordstrom decided long ago to go over all the songs and all the books to make a catalogue of all that food. The result of that work was The Margaritaville Cookbook, a volume sold exclusively through Margaritaville for more than fifteen years. Now, Nordstrom has revised and renewed the work as Jimmy's Buffet - Food for Feeding Friends and Feeding Frenzies. Available wherever books are sold, this Margareader edition still reflects the eclectic tastes of a vagabond whose work has kept him comfortably in the tropics. To be sure, there's the occasional foray to New Orleans, to Nantucket, and even to France, but much of Jimmy's Buffet tends to linger among those little latitudes. So, it's sort of like swallowing the equator, and Parrotheads the world over will be pleasantly surprised at what Jimmy has eaten down through the years. Of course, now and then Jimmy says he's going to write his own cookbook someday, but Nordstrom really doesn't see that anywhere on the horizon. Not that Bubba wouldn't be able to do it, but when would he ever find the time? So, 'til that day comes along, Jimmy's Buffet will just have to do. And Parrotheads will discover that it does that very well.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50406571278609,"sku":"CIN1883684986VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":52107607081233,"sku":"CIN1883684986G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1883684986.jpg?v=1750726465"},{"product_id":"essential-book-of-boat-drinks-assorted-frozen-concoctions-book-olaf-nordstrom-9781883684211","title":"The Essential Book of Boat Drinks \u0026 Assorted Frozen Concoctions","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50467640279313,"sku":"CIN1883684218G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51056983900433,"sku":"NIN9781883684211","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1883684218.jpg?v=1750726464"},{"product_id":"keepers-radio-stories-from-only-a-game-and-elsewhere-book-olaf-nordstrom-9781883684143","title":"Keepers: Radio Stories from Only a Game and Elsewhere","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51328365363473,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51328367853841,"sku":"CINB000H36R3EG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/B000H36R3E.jpg?v=1750995584"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/collections\/author-books-by-olaf-nordstrom.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
