Many BNers have often said something like "Gee, if I could somehow be Jimmy......"

Most of us are truly envious of his present fame, fortune, and lifestyle.

Got me to pondering the following question: If Jimmy wasn't Jimmy I wonder who in the world he would like to be??????? :o

And Drew Brees always wished that he could be one of the Cosby kids so I guess Jimmy wants to be Theo Huxtable.

Oh, I could be anyone I wanted to be
Maybe the suave Errol Flynn or the Shief Of Arabee...

If he just had a pencil thin mustache

An astronaut:

How I would love to drive the shuttle
Just to feel the engines roar
And to operate the levers
That control the payload doors
I could buzz the Himalayas
Barrel roll above Hong Kong
Set her down in San Francisco
To the clangin' of a gong

I'd imagine he could want that at times, but then again, there are those trips in the Green Tomato...that can't help but draw attention. 8)

Maybe he could live in this trailer??

Click PHOTO for story...
Rolling Waves and Rolling Homes... Was this recently or from a while back? It sounds familiar.

I always thought he'd make a Grade-A barkeep. Spins a great yarn, handy with a blender, has a keen understanding of the importance of location.

On a non-related note, under Jimmy's bio info, shouldn't the answer to "Number of Concerts" be: "All"?
