Cheeseburger in Paradise

Welcome to Saturday: 9. What we've committed to our readers is that we will post 9 questions every Saturday. Sometimes the post will have a theme, and at other times the questions will be totally unrelated. Those weeks we do "random questions," so to speak. We encourage you to visit other participants' posts and leave a comment. Because we don't have any rules, it is your choice. We hate rules. We love memes, however, and here is today's meme!

Cheeseburger in Paradise (1978)

Unfamiliar with this week's tune? Hear it here.

1) In this song, Jimmy briefly attempts a healthier diet, which included sunflower seeds, carrot juice, zucchini, and bulgur wheat. Do you pay attention to your daily consumption of vitamins, minerals, dietary fiber, etc.?  No.  I should pay more attention but I don't.

2) Jimmy sings that he'd like french fries with his burger. Do you prefer to dip your fries or drizzle the ketchup over them?  I prefer to dip my fries in the ketchup.  I prefer to eat them with my fingers, not my fork.

3) Which cheese would make yours a cheeseburger in paradise: American, cheddar, Swiss, bleu, Muenster, or Monterrey Jack? I like all of those flavors but most often have American or cheddar.

 
4) Buffett fans call themselves Parrotheads. Concert attire for a well-dressed Parrothead often includes a Hawaiian shirt and a foam fin hat. What will you be wearing tonight?  Nothing special on my calendar for tonight so my usual Saturday attire of capris and a comfortable t-shirt.  I am doing chores and (perhaps) taking a little bike ride today!

 

5) For someone with such an easygoing and laidback vibe, Jimmy is a very busy man. His business ventures include liquors, restaurants, and hotels. He's also published eight books. All this in addition to making music! On a scale of 1 to 10 -- with 1 being lazy and 10 being highly motivated -- how would you rate yourself this morning?  A pretty solid 4.  I have work to do but lack just a little motivation. 

6) Jimmy has some very famous fans. Paul McCartney asked him to play at one of his parties, and Barack Obama invited him to perform at a fundraiser. If you could invite anyone -- anyone at all! -- to play at your party, who would you ask?  Joe and I both loved listening to Steve Tyrell and I still have a couple of his CDs.   I would love to talk with him so he would add more than just music to the party! Hopefully we could keep politics out of it.

7) Jimmy was born on Christmas Day. Does your birthday fall on a major holiday?  No. My brother-in-law was born on Christmas Day, however, and Joe's birthday would sometimes fall on Labor Day.  If yes, do you mind "sharing" your special day?

8) In 1978, the year this song was popular, the Susan B. Anthony Dollar was first minted. The initial design was not a hit with the public because vending machines could not accept it. What's the last thing you bought from a vending machine?  I can't even remember the last time I used a vending machine. Years.

9) Random question -- If today's your birthday, your zodiac sign is Libra. When did you last check your horoscope?  I usually read my horoscope in the morning paper because it is on the comic page.  I do not believe in them... it IS on the comic page.

Peace & hugs!

Jesus is the way!
