Taken in 1971 showing myself, Diane, Larry (2 yrs) and baby Carey Lynn. I wasn't old back then and I had some hair!

Very Nice Picture... But if you are going to use a Picture where you weren't old, shouldn't you change your name to something like "Not So Old Jim"??? lol

Jim The Guy doesn't have the same ring to it. It sounds more like the guy in prison who gets you that pack of cigarettes or a bottle of liquor or maybe a new toothbrush or some extra toiletpaper.
Y'know, like Morgan Freeman in The Shawshank Redemption?
Jerry the Jackal: "Oi, youse mugs talked ta Jim the Guy lately? Essa fixer, that'n. Git yaz anything youse wants! Cigarettes, booze... even fix yaz one a dem con-jugglin' visits."
Mat the Cub: "Wazza candugglin visit?"
Fred the Fox: "Izzat when yaz gets like, a visit from a gal an' then yaz gets ta juggle her a bit? Y'know, widdout dem guards watchin', I mean?"
Jerry: "Ain't that whut Jim said? I says, to 'im, I says, 'Jimmy, yaz know yaz ma main man, you da GUY. But smokes and alcaholic bev'rages aside, whut kin yaz do for us?' An' he tells me 'bout his grand scheme! So I ask youse, has the Guy evvah let us down inna past?"
Mat & Fred: "...S'pose not."
I could go on, but you get the picture. Also, I like Jim just the way he is. I wouldn't change a thing.

I just realized how politically incorrect it is for us young whippersnappers to call you 'old'...
Speaking of the 70's, maybe we should start using 'Jim the Vintage Guy'?
Actually, the only p.c. term would be Jim the Chronologically Gifted Guy
-Fred
PS, speaking of what's politically correct, I remember a comic by Gary Larson; had a bunch of undead walking out of a graveyard, with a sort of movie-title text above the whole picture, which said 'Night of the Living Impaired'.
