@[gulfcoaster:18935] - 'This was my first Key West song. I was running from a bad marriage and a trail of debt, and wound up at the end of America. Nobody cared about either there, and they took the time to applaud the sunset at the end of the day. It was a place for me to hang my hat for a while.' -- JB. |

@[Aristocracker:18934] This is clearly not what the song says. The mention of Packard is typical of Buffet who loves for the early-Baby-Boomer age, 1950s TV and so on. In the early 1950s a Packard was on par with a Cadillac. In the early 1970s it was totally passe, which is why Buffett mentions it here. The whole song is about a backward look at a place whose charm is mainly because of how backward the place is. If it's one thing Buffett loves, it's timelessness. |
