Busboy pulls a Paris Hilton on Jimmy Buffett

So the meat of this story is that some busboy lifted Jimmy Buffett's cellphone when he left it on the table at a restaurant, and basically proceeded to hold it hostage while rifling through his contacts. Looks like ol' Jim's been hangin' tight with the likes of Bill Clinton (who would probably have preferred to turn up in Paris Hilton's address book), Al Gore and… George Clooney? Must have been some raging party. Anywho, the Palm Beach Post's Jose Lambiet gets a little sloppy on the tech, confusing a "memory chip" with a SIM card and an "Ericsson" with a Sony Ericsson but hey, who's counting. Oh, and the kid? Busboy Jason Martin had a visit from a Secret Service agent which prompted him to finally return the phone, though sans SIM card, which nevertheless apparently got him off the hook with the authorities. Do they not realize how these things work?
