So, I was searching for who knows what the other day and up pops this pic of Jim Thompson.

For those in the know, you'll understand why just this picture made me laugh.

So, let's hear for it Jim and celebrate his life

"A man with a taste for single malt whisky and fine cigars."

Dos Equis patterned their spokesman after Jim Thompson.

Really, Jim could have sued them. But Jim hates lawyers, so instead he simply maneuvered a hostile takeover of their parent corporation and laughed all the way to the bank.

A man with a taste for single malt whisky and fine cigars.”

After returning to his home in Fresno, California, Jim's mother insisted he finish the 3rd grade, much to Jim's chagrin, because he had other ideas.

That cute little next door neighbor named Betty; aw, yes, sweet, sweet Betty was now on Jim's mind.

First things first though, so, with lunch pail in hand, Jim went off to finish 3rd grade.
