By Jim Sim My wife being Finnish didn’t grow up with the handy Scottish phrases, metaphors, sarcasm and what I like to call wittiness, that I grew up with.
Not every Scottish joke is funny but I have to say that with her Finnish accent, a few well placed Scottish-isms can be hilarious.

By Jim Sim One of my favorite characters is Donkey from the movie Shrek. And at one point he sings a song, trying to illicit sympathy and manipulate Shrek into being his friend. The words go something like this, 'I'm all alone, there's no-one here beside me, all alone, no one to deride me....'
By Jim Sim James Bond has been a hero of mine since I was a boy. Some kids like the Marvel heroes and other comic book figures like superman, batman etc. but not me, those guys are just unrealistic.
James is more true to real life after all, with his gadgets, cars, beautiful women drooling over him, dry wit, navy seal type survival skills and MMA fighting abilities. On top of all that he has a killer sense of style and the best thing is that he does everything he does without being shaken or stirred. What a guy! Ridiculous!.. By Jim Sim Flowers are abundant in the area of Panama which has been my home since 2014. They are ridiculously colorful. So colorful that my daughter Whitney mentioned that the colors were so lucid they looked digitally enhanced.
