Good news! Jimmyp is alive! Tracked him down to that rock in the med called gibraltar, apparently he is quite well, working for an online game company and seeing a lady about 10 years older than himself, mentioned coming back on here so hopefully he will pop in and say hello to you all.

Good work, Andy! It would be very nice to hear from jimmyp.
 


Nice, though I don't know who's jimmyp, but sure feels nice to know about people who somehow you've contacted/shared views/interacted with... Which reminds me of kyleb *sigh*
 


Thanks Andy! So glad jimmyP is doing well.
 


jimmyp deserves a fishy welcome whenever he chooses to return..:smile:
 


That's good to hear, Andy. Jimmy was an amusing and sometimes irritating little fart, and I miss him.

I didn't know him, but this sounds like a characteristics of some of the best of the best of the best (Sir!, with honors...) PFers around.
 


Jimmy's a nice name.

Damn straight. (And I hope that the "Sir" wasn't aimed at me; I'm "Sir" only to people that I don't like.)

Nah, it was a reference to Men in Black.

James Edwards: Maybe you already answered this, but, why exactly are we here?
Zed: [noticing a recruit raising his hand] Son?
Second Lieutenent Jake Jenson: Second Lieutenant, Jake Jenson. West Point. Graduate with honors. We're here because you are looking for the best of the best of the best, sir!
[throws Edwards a contemptible glance]
[Edwards laughs]
Zed: What's so funny, Edwards?
James Edwards: Boy, Captain America over here! "Best of the best of the best, sir!" "With honors." Yeah, he's just really excited and he has no clue why we're here.


I can't think about "Best of the best of the best" without "sir!".

Sorry 'bout that, Borek. I love that movie, and have seen it 3 or 4 times, but I'm not much for remembering dialogue. Even after reading your quote, I don't recall hearing it. :redface:

Me too, I've seen the movie 4 times or so, yet I still don't recall that dialogue... Sigh

I'm not surprised you don't remember. It was just before he showed you his pen.

No problems guys, there was a few rumours that he had moved back to england and that he had been charged with assaulting a barmaid (certainly didnt sound like him) and thankfully it wasnt him, taken a long time to track the bugger down but I am glad i did, going to try and talk him into coming back here and sorting out a facebook account aswell.

Well, I wouldn't recommend a Facebook account to my worst enemy (simply killing him would be more merciful), but it would be great to have Jimmy show up here on PF again. His contributions have always been appreciated.
