I have a big jim story...it was sonoma, like 2004 or 2005, and we were parked next to his rig...sat night after Q4, and I was cleaning parts or something....big jim made a good run with whoever was driving his car at the time...but Mrs. Dunn was folding the parachutes as we were all doing sat night service, so I went and said hi, and complimented her on what a great task and unthanked duty straightening p-lines and folding chutes was...which she said thank you for...then big jim appeared...and i wont lie..hes a um lets call it an "infortamtive presence"... so me in my late 20's brilliance...says..."big jim you make diane (never mind I introuced myself like 4 min before) fold parachutes?...he said "well, she dont do dishes, so shes got to fold the laundry"....i sat like a deer in a headlight for a second ..then laughed nervously..they both winked and I excused myself....yeah...Youth is a blessing and a curse...and the Dunn family is super awesome
