Greg or Mango Mon 

Married to my best friend Kristie

1999

 I came down from Cincinnati. It took me 2 days in a U-Haul in 1981. I also lived here from 1970-1976.

Favorite JB tunes- A Pirate Looks At 40, My Lovely Lady, Tin Cup Chalice, Migration, Trying to reason with hurricane season. 
Favorite JB CD- A1A
Other music? Reggae, Country, 70’s rock. 
Hobbies? Cooking, Lightning Hockey
What do you drink? Corona with 2 limes, Crown Royal. A “Grain Train” at
Fat Tuesday’s in Key West. 
Likes? Open minded people, Laughing, Lower Latitudes, warm breezes off the water, good friends, Lightning Hockey, spending time with my wife. I like the stress release you get when you pop in a Bubba CD and your mind goes away for awhile. I guess you could call that “Mental Floss”.
Dislikes? The Moral Majority, Condos on the beach’s (I wish a summer squall would blow them all the way up to fantasyland) The Philadelphia Flyers, Eagles and their fans, impatient people.
Favorite Buffettism-  If we weren’t all crazy we would go insane!
 

We want more..tell us when you became a Parrothead and why you joined the TBPH club—

I have been a Buffett fan since the mid 70’s. I saw Jimmy a couple of times at Skips Quarter Deck on Madeira Beach.  (There is a condo there now) when he would show up and play with the Mad Beach Band. Harry Dailey was the red head bass player for the Coral Reefers and also played with the Mad Beach Band. I was also at the concert in Cincinnati when Timothy B. Schmidt coined the name ParrotHeads. I moved back to Florida soon after.

 

Around 1999 I heard that there was a ParrotHead club here in the area but didn’t check it out until I was talking with a friend at work (Loni) and she was telling us that her and Pete had just joined and how great the people in the club were. They invited us to a meeting with them and they introduced us to Axl and Lori and everyone else they had met. We joined that night and started volunteering soon after at the Fins to the Left store.

 

You really don’t realize on the night of your indoctrination that when Captain Harry says to “Go out there and meet the greatest people in the world” that you will actually meet some of the greatest people in the world right there in your club.
