Gosh, it's time again for Jim's birthday


We take a moment to reflect on good old Jim, whose birthday seems to fall almost every year on August 17th.  I'd say Jim is a good man.  Husband, father, brother, son, worker bee, friend to many, survivor of many injuries and accidents, smart guy, well read, creative, handy with the tools, can back almost any trailer into position within two tries, funny, generous with his time and his ideas.  He'd give you the shirt off his back (but you'd better wash it first).  So there you go.

If there's anything good that a person can say about good old Jim, it has to start with the reflection that he's consistent. As Pete notes, good old Jim tends to be good at just about anything he does, and by this I reflect on many good memories of his persistent,often obsessive, unwavering, determined, relentless, single-minded, dog-on-a-bone intensity as he approaches anything he lays his hands on. Be you child in need of gentleness or adult in need of a scrapper, good old Jim's your man.
