The Life and Times of Jim
Hi, there. I'm Jim. Welcome to my phlog!
This site was written for Las Vegas, then LouisVille. Now, it seems to be about anywhere. In these phlogs, you'll see a lot of my personal notes and pictures. I like to post my observations here to remember life and celebrate it. I'm not religious. I don't pray for good fortune. I'm ecstatically grateful for the gift of life and I think our time should be remembered and not taken for granted. I'm not a writer. I think pictures tell stories so much better than words. I love just about everything in this life, and, I guess that would have to include you. So, if you've seen me, don't be surprised if your picture is in here somewhere. Of all the critters, people are absolutely the most interesting.

 jim  I just replied to you Robert
Testing my reply...I just replied to you Robert, and I wrote a book. I think Earthlink is going bonkers, or something else is out of wack. So, this is mainly a test to see if I CAN enter blogs ok.

 jim  Well, this blog seems to work kind of okay now.
What a pain! I had to change the locations of my programs, change the programs themself and alter the security on my server hosted by Earthlink to conform with my (.HTACCESS) security file.
It was a real Cleopatra's Pain-In-The-ASP.

Took Becky, Dustin and Jennifer to Boulder City
I let everyone drive around on the dry lake on 95.
Also taught everyone how to use a wrist rocket. Shot off a bunch of fireworks. yippee!!!
Saw the carshow in Boulder City along with their Octoberfest celebration
I was amazed at how many cars that were there, that I had owned in my life (65 Chevy SS, 74 914 Porsche, 63 Chevy, 62 Chevy, 65 Chevy, 72 Nova, 75 Mazda, 74 Cadillac, 72 Vega). I guess now they're all classics. I sold most of them as junk, I only paid $25-$300 for a car in those days.
Drove up boyscout trail just south of Boulder City
Going up was strange. We passed a rocky field with air ducts coming up out of the ground. Then we passed an iron smelter. THEN, we came up to what looked like a flat radio telescope. At the end of the trail, there's a point where you can see Lake Meade, Railroad Pass Casino, and Las Vegas. What a view!

Went to Boulder City to visit some friends in a band.
Missed Chuck Shepperd, but connected with Mark and Sandy. They're fun people. Mark plays in a band, and they own a small janitorial business. Crazy people (like Becky and me).

Drove 200 miles touring Nevada Primm, Nevada.
Visited the Dry Lake
Just north of Buffalo Bills is a dry lake that's 2 miles wide, 5 miles long. It's perfectly flat and perfect for trying out your vehicle at high speeds. You can do anything safely out there in a vehicle!
Visited Goodsprings.
This old town (founded in the 1800's) is home to a haunted bar, old mining buildings, houses and trailers with a backyard Sandford and Sons would drool at.
Visited Sandy Valley.
I remember when this town was hot in the real estate arena. I knew people out there. The girlfriend I ended up married lived there.
- I could have died near Sandy Valley in a high speed motorcycle wreck
I left the road over a hill with an unmarked curve doing 80mph. I got bloody, with bunch of stitches, but I survived.
Memories.
- The people who bought out there bought on speculation. What a hype. Its a sandy valley with a collection of some very strange people. Someone built a porch surrounding their 20' travel trailer. Very Odd thing to do. Someone else planted a strip of grass 5' wide by 100' long. I guess they like to mow grass. It looked kind of stupid.
- They have gliders out there, a dome building, some kind of ranch, and off road races.
Drove 20 miles through the desert to Pahrump.
If you haven't driven through the desert, you're missing a real treat. Some of the trash is over 50 years old.
How does it go, bury a cheap Timex watch in the desert and in 1,000 years it becomes priceless!
Bought $40 worth of fireworks in Pahrump.
For me, that's a life time supply of cherry bombs...Yippee!
Pahrump has casinos, brothels, fireworks, fish farms, turf farming, and lots of trailers. It's a town out of this world and one step out of time!
