Tales from Jimmy- UPDATE

[sheilaincali]

The old thread was locked so I couldn't update it. 

Today we received a call from Jimmy's brother.  It seems our old friend Jimmy recommended that his brother come down here and apply for a job.  Brother is filling out his application as we speak.  It should be noted that unlike Jimmy- the brother is able to fill out his application by himself and without the assistance of his girlfriend.  Also worth noting that this brother looks and acts very little like Jimmy. 

I couldn't resist asking for an update on the Life of Jimmy

1.  Sadly- no news on the Jimmy friend in Witness Protection.  Apparently the Brother has never heard that story and has no clue what we are even talking about.  Just laughed and said "that sounds like a story my brother would dream up.

2.  Jimmy's current employment status- he met some people at a local restaurant that want him to model for him.  He told his brother that all he needed to do was show back up at the restaurant in "clean jeans and cowboy boots".  I can only imagine where it's going to go from there.

There you have it.  The best I could come up with for a Tales from Jimmy Update.  I have encouraged my brother to hire Jimmy's Brother in the hopes that I will get to hear more wild stories.

[Happy prose]

I loved the Jimmy thread. I can only hope the brother is half as entertaining.

Yay!! Tales from Jimmy is back.  Oh man that original thread was priceless.

[sheilaincali]

I have my fingers crossed.  Gotta find an angle so he doesn't think I'm some creep stalking his brother   I did have to leave the room because I started giggling when he was telling us about Jimmy's modeling.  Sounds like a white trash Play Girl set up if you ask me.  They want him to meet them at a bar/restaurant in clean jeans and cowboy boots and nothing else?  Sounds suspicious if you ask me.

No clean shirt too? And a modeling gig - hmmm. It isn't a restaurant with male strippers is it?


[Or maybe it's a gay bar.]

I was thinking a calendar.  Or maybe a video....

Ahh...Jimmies.

I once knew a guy named Jimmy.  I named my cat after him.  Because, you know, he was a cat-named-after kinda Jimmy.

Anyways, Jimmy (the cat, not the person) ended up electrocuting me.  Then he ran away. 

That was 10 years ago, but sometimes I still think of Jimmy (the cat, not the person.  F*ck that guy.) 

I sure hope he found a good home.  A special sort of home.  For cats...named Jimmy.   And with no access to electricity.

The end.

Yay, Jimmy is back!  If his brother is hired, do invite Jimmy to stop by and visit!

So Trevor- the brother- is the complete opposite of Jimmy.  Travis is leaving in the fall for Air Force Basic Training to do aeronautical engineering and seriously has the next 10 years of his life planned out.

Lassie-  Nope, no shirt was required- they did ask him to bring a cowboy hat though (I forgot to mention that earlier).  It's a regular bar/restaurant in the small town they live in.  Has nothing to do with the restaurant.  He just was "discovered" by some people while he was afternoon drinking one day. 

My brother told Trevor that he was totally going to have to have Jimmy stop by and catch us up on his life.

According to Trevor:
Jimmy's latest money making venture is apparently driving along the railroad construction and stealing railroad ties and selling it as scrap metal.  Trevor has tried to explain to him that it's a federal offense (?) to do that and that they will catch him.

He is also living in his bedroom from high school still at his parents house.  Down the hall from the parents.  Sends out group texts from his phone that say "Good Night, Love you" in the hopes that it will "spark some interest and he'll get some".  So far he hasn't had any takers.

His breath is hovering right around 80 proof 24/7.  Trevor blows out any candle that his mom lights because he figures one good cough or sneeze out of Jimmy will cause a fire ball and the house will burn down.

Really hoping my brother hires him but I won't know until closer to spring.  Trevor graduates in June and wouldn't start working until then.

As a condition of employment for Trevor, weekly Jimmie updates are mandatory.

 It should be noted that unlike Jimmy- the brother is able to fill out his application by himself and without the assistance of his girlfriend. Also worth noting that this brother looks and acts very little like Jimmy. 


I can only say DAMN-IT! Jimmy stories were GREAT. You need to sit down with your boss & explain that he needs to hire Jimmy back because on line strangers love Jimmy stories.

[dannylion]

Who is Travis?

Awesome. I've been mostly offline at work for days due to computer issues. First thing I see is a Jimmy thread. Just what I needed. Love it!

DannyLion-  I may have that backwards.  I couldn't remeber if the brother's name was Travis or Trevor so if I've used both names i apologize.  It's the same person.

I'm not going to go back & read the old thread, but wasn't Jimmy going to make his fortune by becoming a professional bull-rider?(or something like that).

[Bluerobin]

It feels soooooooooooooooo good NOT to be Jimmy!

  And it sounds like T might actually be amused/bemused by the fact that virtual strangers are fascinated by his trainwreck brother...

And on a side note Sheila, your brother hires for 4 months?  June to Fall?  I don't remember what the company is but I'm guessing there's not a whole lot of training required. 

[sheilaincali]

Beth-  is concrete manufacturing.  Not a ton of training required.  Our busiest time is May through Sept. So yes, he'd have no problems hiring the kid for just a few months.  We get a handful of the local college football players that will come work for the summer too.  They work from when they get out for summer break until they have to go back for football practice and school in the fall. 

SL- Yes Jimmy has big dreams of being a professional Bull Rider.  According to his brother he is still doing some bullriding. 

He did get in trouble driving without a license one too many times so now he has no vehicle at all and is dependant on other people for rides to work, modeling, bull riding etc.

He is a magnet for chicks with low self esteem I think.  His baby mama (His son is a little over 2) is being "Catfished" by some guy supposedly in the Army and stationed in New Orleans.  She has chatted with him on line and seen one picture of him so far.  She is planning on moving down to New Orleans to marry him this spring.  Jimmy wants to move her into his parents basement until she moves to N.O and gets married.  Of course this chick is "psycho" and the two of them argue constantly.

dannylion  Couldn't find the original Jimmy thread but I found this update.  I'll have to ask my Brother if he's heard anything about Jimmy lately.

[NancysSummerSip]

Even the update thread is freaking hilarious. I'm doing freelance work and laundry today, and still battling bronchitis, so I really appreciate this.
