Jimmy is an HONORABLE man, and actually lost a bet back in the 90's. The wager was...if Jimmy lost the bet...he would have to play his Bagpipe on a VERY windy day...without his undies.
A passerby, while covering her small childrens' eyes, snapped this photo then called the Police.The Police arrived, and as Jimmy's luck would have it, the Chief of Police was a fan of Jimmy's...and let him off without any consequence.
Jimmy has written a book, and an Evolution Scientist who is a fan of Jimmy's music, reached out to Jimmy and asked for HIS thoughts on Evolution.
This...was Jimmy's offering.
OK, Jimmy, we had a little bit of fun at your expense...but here are some actual facts about you that some may not be aware of !
His father threw Jimmy and his brother off the end of a pier when they were
young, thinking this would teach them how to swim. To this day, neither of
them can swim. BUT, they both love boating!
He had a greenhouse in Scotland, where he nurtured flowers and tomatoes.
He used to make jewelry as a sideline.
He and a buddy used to repair cars to earn a bit of extra money.
He has worked as a bookbinder, an insurance agent, an engineer for NCR, a
reedmaker, a pipe chanter designer, and an agent for acquiring and reselling
antique bagpipes, as well as teaching piping in the public schools of Scotland,
and Carnegie Mellon University. Jimmy also wrote numerous published articles and a book, with another one currently in the works !
Jimmy’s favorite vegetable is Brussels Sprouts.
His favorite meal is fish and chips………failing the availability of that, fish of any
kind!
He grew wonderful, juicy tomatoes in the great soil of Western PA.
Jimmy broke his finger while playing vigorous racquetball with Joyce. He never
set foot on a racquetball court after that!
He took up golf, as an octogenarian.

We vowed for most of our married lives that we would “never have a dog.” Now,
Jimmy (and all of us) would be lost without our beloved Skye!
He has used over the years: a huge reel-to- reel tape recorder, a large desktop
cassette recorder, a mini cassette recorder, a CD recorder, a mini CD recorder, a
desktop computer, a TracFone, two iPhones, two iPads, and now has a
