Delaney Talks To Statues
Delaney talks to statues as she dances 'round the pool She chases cats through Roman ruins and stomps on big toadstools She speaks a language all her own that I cannot discover But she knows I love her so when I tuck her 'neath the covers
Father, daughter Down by the water Shells sink, dreams float Life's good on our boat
Delaney draws me pictures, she finger-paints the sand We chase the dogs and hop like frogs, then I do my bad handstands She's growing up too fast for me and asking lots of questions Some I know the answers to, and some I'm looking for suggestions
Father, daughter Born by the water Surf's up, sun's down Life in a beach town
And some of the things I've seen Maybe she won't have to see But there's a lot I want to pass along That was handed down to me
Delaney talks to statues as she dances 'round the pool She chases cats through Roman ruins and stomps on big toadstools She speaks a language all her own, just a little like her mother And she knows I love her so when I tuck her 'neath the covers
Father, daughter Down by the water Shells sink, dreams float Life's good on our boat
Shells sink, dreams float Life's good on our boat

Look. I know next to nothing about Robin's dad, other than he is likely an exhippie. But I DO know that when the Jimmy Buffett apparent deepcut "Delaney Talks To Statues" comes out in the early nineties it punches him in the face.

Delaney Talks to Statues - Jimmy Buffett
youtube
Delaney draws me pictures
She finger-paints the sand
We chase the dogs and hop like frogs
Then I do my bad handstand
She's growin' up too fast for me
And askin' lots of questions
Some I know the answers to
And some I'm lookin' for suggestions
So this is one of Jimmy's songs about his kids (they all got at least one and they're adorable) and it's about his wild child daughter running around as a kid with a big imagination and how much he loves her.
So now I'm thinking about which of the handful of ships I've had lately needs to end up with a wild child daughter...
I hate u a little, but my first thought was actually Sam and Andrew, ending up adopting some kid bc Sam would love her with every ounce of his hillbilly white trash heart of GOLD and would teach her to drive fast and fix cars and raise hell.
(I do not normally go for "this ship of teen to young adult men go domestic", but having been forced to do so, I can see it SO fucking clearly now)
Oh my GOD no it just got better. They initially sign up for Big Brothers/Big Sisters of America bc Riley thinks Sam and Andrew needs more healthy connections and that's how they end up making friends with a kid and like. Getting their own lives together. So much therapy and bonding.
And some of the things I've seen
Maybe she won't have to see
But there's a lot I want to pass along
That was handed down to me
Tell me that Sam and Andrew aren't trying to keep that kid away from ghosts and hard drugs and homophobia but teaching her cars and "don't fuck with what's beyond your scope”

So like many 60+ year old white dads my dad unironically loves Jimmy Buffett. Obviously. His Buffett knowledge is deep and vast. And the thing about Jimmy is that yes there's all the gimmicky songs like Cheeseburger In Paradise and Fins but underneath that is a pretty clever guy who has actually written a number of songs that are actually about something. He Went to Paris isn't a gimmicky steel drums and islands references song. Come Monday isn't really either. A Pirate Looks at 40 is sort of a gimmick but it's also about growing up and learning and mourning for something you never had. And then there's Delaney Talks to Statues. It's a sweet little song about one of his daughters. And we're in the car today, and it starts to play - bc there's an entire Sirius radio channel devoted to Jimmy Buffett. Bc ofc there is - and my dad is talking about the song, which is about this little girl playing make believe and talking to statues by a pool, and he smiles a little, and he says "reminds me of one of my daughters." 🥺

Jimmy Buffett - 9/2023
Jimmy Buffett was born on December 25, 1946, in Pascagoula, Mississippi, and spent part of his childhood in Mobile and Fairhope, Alabama. He was the son of Mary Lorraine (née Peets) and James Delaney Buffett Jr, who worked for the Army Corps of Engineers. During his grade school years, he attended St. Ignatius School, where he played the trombone in the school band. As a child, he was exposed to…

Music asks: 5, 11, 19.
5: A song that needs to be played LOUD
Gloria, Laura Branigan; Under Pressure, Queen & David Bowie; Bohemian Rhapsody, Queen; Don’t Stop Me Now, Queen (Basically anything by Queen), among others.
11: A song that you never get tired of
Because the Night, Patti Smith; Diamonds on the Soles of Her Shoes, Paul Simon; And She Was, Talking Heads, again, among others.
19: A song that makes you think about life
Whoo-boy, I’m not sure where to take this. One song that makes me introspective, and I suppose gets me thinking about part of life is “Delaney Talks to Statues” by Jimmy Buffett. It’s about father-daughter relationships, and I knew when I was about nine, listening to it on cassette in my Dad’s car that that was the song I wanted for my father-daughter wedding dance. Twenty years later, that was the song my Dad and I danced to at my wedding.

via Politics – FiveThirtyEight
Welcome to a weekly collaboration between FiveThirtyEight and ABC News. With 5,000 people seemingly thinking about challenging President Trump in 2020 — Democrats and even some Republicans — we’re keeping tabs on the field as it develops. Each week, we’ll run through what the potential candidates are up to — who’s getting closer to officially jumping in the ring and who’s getting further away.
There are still a number potential candidates whose entrance into the 2020 field could shake up an already crowded race, and it appears many of them are coming close to revealing their plans.
There’s former Rep. Beto O’Rourke, who ruled out a 2020 Senate run this week, but whose celebrity status and fundraising ability could catapult him to the top of the field.
There’s former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, who is reportedly looking at New York City campaign office space. And his appeal to political moderates and billions of dollars would allow him to run a self-funded campaign, where he would not be beholden to donors and money would never be a concern.
And there’s former Vice President Joe Biden, who said his family is on board, and whose strength in name-recognition and political experience has made him a de facto favorite since the day President Donald Trump won election in 2016.
While other presidential candidates are beginning to settle into their campaign routines, it won’t be long until the decisions of these three players, and several more, refresh the field and force everyone else to recalibrate their strategies.
Here’s the weekly candidate roundup:
Feb. 22-28, 2019
Stacey Abrams (D) In a podcast interview with MSNBC’s Chris Hayes, Abrams said that she is “considering” a run for Senate in 2020 against incumbent Georgia Republican Sen. David Perdue.
Michael Bennet (D) During a trip to Iowa last weekend, Bennet told the Des Moines Register that he is “leaning toward” entering the presidential race. The newspaper also reported that he spent much of his four stops in the Hawkeye State speaking about education — Bennet was the superintendent of Denver Public Schools for four years.
“I think we need an education president,” Bennet told the Register. “There’s no public good that’s more important than education.”
Joe Biden (D) Biden said Tuesday at a University of Delaware event that his family has signed-off on a presidential run, explaining that after a “family meeting,” there was a “consensus.”
“The most important people in my life want me to run,” the former vice president said.
As for the timeline of his own decision, Biden revealed that he is in the “final stages” of the process and told the New York Times that a potential campaign would begin during the year’s second quarter.
“It’s something that I have to make sure that I could run a first-rate effort to do this and make clear where I think the country should go and how to get there,” he said publicly. “That’s the process going on right now. That’s as straightforward as I can be. I have not made the final decision, but don’t be surprised.”
Michael Bloomberg (D) Bloomberg picked up a preemptive endorsement from fellow billionaire Warren Buffett, who revealed his affinity for the former New York City mayor in an interview with CNBC.
“I think that he knows how to run things, I think that he’s got the right goals for America, he understands people, he understands the market system,” Buffett said.
Politico reported Thursday that representatives of Bloomberg were beginning to look at office space in New York City and interviewing potential staffers.
Bloomberg stopped in Nevada Tuesday to praise the state’s new gun background check law. During a news conference related to the legislation he noted that he was still undecided on a presidential run.

Cory Booker (D) Booker introduced legislation Thursday that would legalize marijuana at the federal level, and was joined by several 2020 rivals, including Sens. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., Kamala Harris, D-Calif., and Kristen Gillibrand, D-N.Y., who cosponsored the bill.
In a statement, the New Jersey senator noted that the “war on drugs,” disproportionately affected “people of color and low-income individuals.”
On Tuesday, Booker earned the first endorsement from an Iowa state lawmaker, courtesy of state Rep. Amy Nielsen, who pointed to their shared experiences as mayors and his “message of optimism and unity.”
After making his first visit to Nevada last weekend, Booker travels to South Carolina Friday and Saturday and will speak in Selma, Alabama Sunday in commemoration of the 1965 “Bloody Sunday” march.
Sherrod Brown (D) Brown took his “dignity of work” message to Nevada earlier this week, where he said that if he chooses to run for president, he’ll be “the most pro-union candidate.”
“We will have a government on the side of workers, not a government on the side of big corporations,” the Ohio senator told members of the Culinary Union Saturday in Las Vegas.
Speaking to reporters Wednesday, however, Brown said he has yet to reach a final decision on a presidential run, but would do so by the end of March.
Pete Buttigieg (D) During a visit to California, the South Bend, Indiana mayor told the San Francisco Chronicle that Democrats need to talk more about their values, and ultimately could make the presidential election solely a referendum about Trump.
“We’ve got to have a message that makes sense and that recognizes that this president is going to come and go. So it can’t be all about him,” Buttigieg said.
Buttigieg heads back to Iowa Monday for his second visit since announcing his presidential exploratory committee, with events in Davenport, Iowa City and Cedar Rapids.
Julian Castro (D) Castro described himself as the “antithesis of Donald Trump” in an interview with the Salt Lake Tribune, saying that he was working to end the country’s divisions and demonstrate “honesty and integrity.”
The former Housing and Urban Development secretary further said he was going to visit all 50 states as part of his presidential campaign, adding four to his list in the past week with stops in Utah, Idaho and Nevada after a road trip through Iowa last weekend.
(Mary Schwalm/AP) Julian Castro, former U.S. Secretary of Housing and Urban Development and candidate for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination, speaks at Saint Anselm College, Jan. 16, 2019, in Manchester, N.H.
Bill de Blasio (D) The New York City mayor visited Iowa last weekend, where he spoke to a crowd of 40 people at a union hall and met with former Gov. Tom Vilsack.
De Blasio acknowledged that he is “not a candidate at this moment,” but argued that Democrats “have to have a progressive as our nominee.”
“We have to be able to speak to working people across our whole country,” he continued. “We also have to have a nominee who is believable as a leader in such an important position.”
John Delaney (D) Delaney visited Clemson University in South Carolina Wednesday where he shared his idea for a national service program, discussed developing a national artificial intelligence strategy and was complimentary of the Trump administration’s efforts to engage with North Korea — though noted he was concerned the president would make a “terrible deal,” according to The Greenville News.
Kirsten Gillibrand (D) Gillibrand defended a planned fundraiser at a pharmaceutical executive’s home where tickets cost upwards of $1,000 during a Fox News interview on Monday, saying that the executive in question was a long-time friend and that it was the influence of corporate political action committees that was more problematic.
“I think you do need to get money out of politics,” the New York senator said. “The most important thing we have to do is upend the way our democracy functions. Today, the wealthiest most powerful lobbyists and special interests groups get to write bills in the dead of night.”
In the interview, Gillibrand further labelled climate change “the greatest threat to humanity we have” and compared ambitious efforts, such as the Green New Deal, to combat the issue to the challenge of putting a man on the moon in the 1960s.
Kamala Harris (D) The California senator made headlines Tuesday when she told The Root that she believed sex work should be decriminalized, though cautioned that the issue wasn’t “as simple as that.”
“There is an ecosystem around that that includes crimes that harm people, and for those issues, I do not believe that anybody who hurts another human being or profits off of their exploitation should be free of criminal prosecution,” Harris said. “But when you’re talking about consenting adults, we should consider that we can’t criminalize consensual behavior.”
After spending last weekend in Iowa, Harris made her first visit to Nevada as a presidential candidate Thursday to hold a town hall and participate in the Black Enterprise Women of Power Summit.
John Hickenlooper (D) The former Colorado governor continues to take steps towards a presidential run, expected to be announced some time in early March. Last weekend, Hickenlooper held meet-and-greet events in Sioux City and Carroll, Iowa, and spoke at the Story County Democrats’ Annual Soup Dinner.
A spokesperson for Hickenlooper told the Associated Press that he has raised over $1 million for his political action committee.
(Brennan Linsley/AP Photo) Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper delivers his annual State of the State address to lawmakers and guests, inside the state legislature, in Denver, Jan. 14, 2016.
Larry Hogan (R) As speculation grows that the Maryland governor could launch a challenge to Trump, Hogan asked in a Washington Post interview why the Republican National Committee was taking steps to declare its support for the president and potentially shutdown primaries.
“If he has unanimous support and everybody is on board, why shut down the normal process?” Hogan said. “It’s almost like a hostage situation.”
Referring to the governor specifically on Thursday at the Conservative Political Action Conference, RNC chair Ronna McDaniel said that any other potential challengers to Trump “have the right to jump in and lose.”
Jay Inslee (D) The Washington governor is expected to launch a presidential campaign within days, teasing as much during an appearance on CBS’ “Face the Nation” last weekend, and telling NBC that he’s made up his mind.
“I’ve been pleased by what I’ve been hearing across the country, that people do want a president that will act on a real emergency which is climate change,” Inslee said on CBS. “Look, we’re fighting real emergencies. The forest fires that are consuming the western United States. They need a president who will rally the nation to a clean energy economy.”
The governor went on to say that climate change would be his “number one priority.”
Amy Klobuchar (D) Klobuchar faced criticism after a New York Times report last Friday detailed her treatment of her staff, including throwing binders and phones in frustration and forcing an aide to clean a comb she used to eat a salad on a plane when it was brought to her without a fork. The senator’s defenders have characterized the anecdotes as inflated and claimed that as a female politician, Klobuchar was being held to a higher standard of behavior than her male counterparts.
The senator spent last weekend campaigning in South Carolina and New Hampshire, after a visit to Georgia where she met with former President Jimmy Carter.
Beto O’Rourke (D) The former Texas congressman said Thursday that he has reached a decision about his political future, but that it won’t include a challenge of Republican Texas Sen. John Cornyn, who is up for reelection in 2020.
Though O’Rourke did not yet reveal whether that decision includes a presidential campaign, The Dallas Morning News reported that he is likely to enter the race and could make such an announcement in the next few weeks.
Bernie Sanders (D) During a CNN town hall, Sanders shared rare praise for Trump, ahead of his meeting with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, describing the summit as a “good idea” if it leads to eventual denuclearization. The Vermont senator further outlined his Medicare-for-all plan, pledged higher corporate tax rates and said that the allegations of sexual harassment within his 2016 campaign were “very painful” and “will not happen again.”
Sanders also pledged to support the Democratic Party’s 2020 presidential nominee, no matter who that person is, because “Trump has got to be defeated.”
Just over one week after launching his campaign, Sanders is holding rallies in Brooklyn and Chicago this weekend, with a stop in between in Selma, Alabama to speak at the Martin Luther and Coretta Scott King Unity Breakfast, which is honoring his former 2016 rival Hillary Clinton.
(AP) In this Oct. 30, 2018 file photo, Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., speaks at a campaign rally in Bethesda, Md.
Elizabeth Warren (D) Warren announced Monday that she will not hold private events that are limited to major donors.
“That means no fancy receptions or big money fundraisers only with people who can write the big checks,” she wrote in a post on Medium. “And when I thank the people giving to my campaign, it will not be based on the size of their donation. It means that wealthy donors won’t be able to purchase better seats or one-on-one time with me at our events. And it means I won’t be doing “call time,” which is when candidates take hours to call wealthy donors to ask for their support.”
In the midst of Trump’s former personal attorney Michael Cohen’s testimony on Capitol Hill Wednesday, the Massachusetts senator said that if she is elected president “there will be no pardons for anyone implicated in these investigations.”
After visiting New Hampshire last weekend, Warren will spend Friday and Saturday in Iowa, with events in Dubuque, Elkader and Waterloo.
Andrew Yang (D) In an interview with WMUR in New Hampshire, Yang said he was concerned about the ages of some of his presidential opponents and potential rivals, citing Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., and former Vice President Joe Biden, who are 77 and 76 years old, respectively. He added that Trump’s 72 years are “probably playing into his mental health.”
“I do think that given the importance of the position, it would make sense to have some sort of transparency where if someone is past a certain age, then there should be some sort of physical or some sort of health report,” Yang added.

Tagging Game
Honestly God bless the people like @letmetellyouaboutmyfeels​ who tag “whoever wants to” because I am petty and always like talking about myself
Nickname(s): Maggie, Maggs, Mags, Magg-with-two-g’s, Magalot, Magathy, Magwheels, Bean, Maggie the Great, Margarita, Maggles, Mugs,
Zodiac:  Aries
Height: 5 ft. 5 1/2 in.
Time: 2:53pm when I started but update it’s 3:17pm when I click post.
Favorite band/artist: uhhhhh Elton John probably?
Song stuck in my head: “Honey, Honey” from Mamma Mia
Last movie I saw: Mamma Mia Here We Go Again
Last thing I googled: What is an RSS Feed
Other blogs: no one needs to see my rp blog or my first tumblr blog. No one.
Do I get asked: About what? No, it doesn’t matter what. I never get asked things.
Why did I choose my username: Okay so I originally was just my username from my old blog, but I was always kinda worried that people would figure it out? I mean idk what I was worried about exactly but I was. But then Rosa came out on Brooklyn Nine-Nine and so I really wanted to be “rosabiaz” but it was taken but then I saw this awesome drawing so I became “detrosabiaz” and I like it and I’m keeping it.
Following: 260 blogs
Average amount of sleep: Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. I mean I’ll go to bed anywhere between midnight and 3am and then wake up anywhere between 7am and noon? This was less of an issue last week when I was staying at my mom’s but it’s become an issue again since I moved back into my apartment.
Lucky numbers: 14 and 2.
What I’m wearing: sleep shorts with a funky arrow pattern on them and a top that says “I <3 Female Orgasm” that I promised my mom I’d make a pajama top and not wear in public.
Dream job: Writing tv shows geared toward middle-grade girls with positive representation and educational value without feeling forced. Also acting in said tv shows. 
Dream trip: Backpacking Europe and seeing EVERYTHING. 
Fav food: Pesto pasta. Specifically my grandmother’s recipe.
Play any instruments: Technically I can pluck out notes on a piano and I know a handful of chords on guitar and ukulele but I think I’m still just one of those assholes who says “my voice is my instrument” even though I’m not that good a singer to really say that.
Hair color: Dark brown, but the underside is blonde because I dyed it blonde so I could dye it purple but the purple came out pink and it’s since faded to blonde and my mom keeps asking me if I “re-dyed it blonde” and I keep having to tell her that no I did not.
Eye color: Brown
Fav song: There’s really no way to pick a favorite song but if I could pick two or three songs that had the most meaning to me in the world they’d be “The Way You Love Me” by Faith Hill, “Delaney Talks to Statues” by Jimmy Buffett, and “Rocket Man” by Elton John.
Languages I speak: English. That’s it because I suck. I want to learn more. I have a whole list of languages I want to become at the very least conversational in.
Random fact: I am very behind on the baby blanket I’m knitting. I only have ten weeks left at most to get it to be roughly 3.5′ long and it takes me like 30 minutes to do a single row with this pattern.
Describe your fantasy: Okay so my dream life has me in some small town. I either commute into a big city for work or I have a book shop on Main Street called Maggie’s Bookshelf. (Possibly Marge’s Bookshelf if I decide when I’m older I want to go by Marge.) My spouse is a great cook and we have a house with a big tree in the front yard with a bench under it and a beautiful garden out back with quaint little sitting areas. The house also has a turret, the top floor of which is a craft room. We have three or for fostered kids and one or two biological kids and we have a really good relationship with my mom and siblings so they visit all the time or are close by or something. If I work in a big city I’d be writing/creating tv shows, or maybe working on Broadway. Something in entertainment. And I reach people. What I do connects to people and makes a difference. I have a few volunteer projects that I love doing. My mental health is all under control. I’ve got a great group of friends and we have adventures together when have spare moments away from our families. Every summer we go to my mom’s lake house and I inevitably wipe out on the jet ski but everyone laughs. My mom teaches some of her grandkids how to sail but also takes them hiking. Once a year, my mom and I spend a weekend in NYC and see a show on Broadway. Each of my kids gets a chance to go when they’re old enough, if they want to. All my life is love and happiness and it’s magic.

Listen to Semi-True Story
Listen to Son of a Son of a Sailor
Propaganda and Trivia Below:
Semi-True Story:
"Written by Mac McAnally ("It's My Job"), this country ballad references Buffett's drunken skirmish with the infamous Buford Pusser, a wrestler-turned-lawman who was known for doling out tough justice as sheriff of McNairy County in Tennessee. As the song says, Buffett had just finished recording "God's Own Drunk" (from his 1974 album Living And Dying In ¾ Time) and headed to the King of the Road Hotel with his drummer, Sammy Creason, to celebrate with some tequila - lots of tequila. By the time they left to get some food, Buffett was so drunk he couldn't find his car, so he stood on the hood of a Cadillac to get a better view of the parking lot. Unfortunately, the Caddy belonged to Buford Pusser. "I was standing on the hood of this particular car and as fate would have it, it belonged to a rather large man who came up behind me and threatened my life real quickly," Buffett told concert-goers just a few months later. "And I hadn't been in a fight since junior high school on the city bus in Mobile. He came up and said 'Son you stay right there, you're under arrest.' So I politely turned around and said 'You kiss my ass.' He didn't. Instead he followed me over to the car which Sammy had found. I got in the driver's side and Sammy got in the passenger's side. My window was up, his was down and this fellow poked his head in and said 'Would you like for me to turn this car over?'" It probably would've been easier on Buffett if the sheriff had turned the car over. Instead, he gave the singer and the drummer the beating of their lives."
Son of a Son of a Sailor:
"Okay but like everyone knows Buffet more so for songs like Margaritaville and Cheeseburger In Paradise etc. I feel Buffet could be easily dismissed lyrically but this song is a good example of the range and the topics he could cover. It still has that laidback feeling but I love more of the nostalgic, historical, and personal touches here. This is usually the first Buffet song I send to people who associate him with “silly” kind of music. Good album, too."
"Buffett wrote this song about his grandfather, James Delaney Buffett, who was a huge influence on his life. Buffett's grandfather was a sailor born in the town of Rose Blanche in Newfoundland, Canada, later moving to Glace Bay in Nova Scotia and eventually settling in Mobile, Alabama."
"Buffett said of the song: "I saw a picture of my grandfather after he had come back from a trip to Nova Scotia. He was born there but left when he was a young man and didn't return until he was 84. He was standing on dock staring at an old sailing schooner, and the look on his face told the story of where he had come from and where he had been. I have always been very proud of my heritage as a sailor and wrote this for the men who taught me the skills.""
