Thanks for posting that picture, JustLori. I am proud to say that my husband, freeper jkphoto, took that photo of Jim. :-)

For those who might be interested in the history behind it; it was taken during a Gary Condit "Where's Chandra?" protest rally in Modesto, probably eight years ago. Jim was in front of a glass storefront window and jk wanted to create a "professional" photo for him (since that's what my husband does and we knew we couldn't convince Jim to come down to our studio, which is an hour south of Fresno). We had nothing we could use to to cover the window except a flag, so that explains the red and white striped background.

This photo of Jim is my husband's favorite and a gift to Jim, FreeRepublic and FreeRepublic members. In fact, jkphoto e-mailed this photo to me from work yesterday so that it could be posted on this thread.

Since I am so proud of Jim and FReeRepublic and all that Jim and this website has done to promote and protect our conservative values over the ten years FR has been on the internet, I am going to post it again! :-)

Get well soon, Jim!

Thank you, MamaBear.

I love that picture.

JK gave me a few wallet sizes of that picture.

Didn’t JK enlarge and frame this as a special prize at one of our Fresno FReeper picnics? Seems that Texas Cowboy won it for traveling the furtherest to attend.

Hope my memory serves me right. ;~ )

You continue to be in our prayers Jim. May God comfort you, give you strength and continue to guide those who treat you.

Hugs to you and your family...
