Jim's Sampler (hell, it's everything I've ever written)

Never miss what I write. Here is an RSS Feed.

Many people have heard me say that I would like to be a writer. You never heard me say that? My main reason for wanting to be a writer is that writers can live some weird life style (hermit, ski bum, etc.) and no one thinks twice about it. In fact writers are expected to be weird so they can do "research" or "gather background". So, my writings are presented here to directly illustrate my weirdness and get you people off my back.
