Job at GJ's

Many a time Jim-Bob could be found in the GJ Movie Theater watching TV, smoking and drinking a beer after work of course.  Jim-Bob along with Toad also was part of the "Bud Band" at J.J. Pearce High School around 1981 in Richardson, Texas.

The rest of the page is from Jim's on words:

I worked at GJ throughout my years at JJ Pearce, ('81-83). I also worked weekends and during the summer for the 13 years I was in college, (actually only 4 and a half). After a rough start to my college career, (leaving A&M after 3 semesters before they kicked me out), I attended Richland Junior College for 2 full years. It was during this time that I became a Christian, and slowly God started changing the priorities in my life.

Though most of my memories of GJ now leave me a little embarrassed, I definitely look back fondly on those years. From the ridiculously late nights of playing Win Lose or Draw, to all those stupid video games I fed through the years. (A habit which, regrettably, has not gone away and is now being passed on to my boy). Some highlights: Headbanger piercing Doug's ear with a hunting knife and beer for disinfectant, Terry and I going to Starplex to see either James Taylor or Spyrogyra and wearing garbage bags (Terry, remember the fishnet lady?), Doug and Steve Freeman "anointing" my '82 Oldsmobile the SS Jimbob complete with spokes painted on my wheels, and a smokestack on top.


82 Olds Cutless Supreme

 Monday nights at the drive-in, hackey sacks, GJ Carrollton, Ms. PacMan, and the absolute best pizza, even to this day, that I've ever had.

Family

God has blessed me far beyond what I deserve. I have a beautiful wife, Mitzi, to whom I have been married for 14 years. We have two awesome kids, Haley (12), and Trent (9). Haley likes sports, (volleyball and basketball), and Trent LOVES sports, (having literally learned to read on the Sports page of the paper).

 

Work

I graduated from NTSU, (now UNT) in December of 1987, and began work in the exciting, glamorous world of Insurance Underwriting. I am currently Manager of an Underwriting unit at Chubb Insurance Company, in downtown Dallas.

Hobbies

Our entire family is very involved in the music ministry of our church.

Mitzi and I sing in the choir and praise team, and the kids both sing as well. I was ordained as a Deacon at PPBC Irving, (go figger, huh?), and my faith and my family are the most important things in my life.
