Jimmy Olson…
He was the go'fer for guy for the man with a big S on his tailor mad blue outfit. Both worked for a major metropolitan newspaper. He wasn’t even a second banana like Friar Tuck to Robin Hood. The important thing here is that with out a second or three banana’s the bunch falls apart. Our story plot falls apart and doesn’t thicken.

What would it be without Larry? Curly, Mo and Walter?
Or try Abbott and Smith…what happened to Costello?
Try Sigfired and Tom without tigers.
Can you imagine a Nascar Race without a pit crew? The driver would have to unbuckle, jump out of the car changing four tires, fill the tank and clean the wind shield then get back in the race.

How about a baseball team without a catcher? Here’s the pitch, and the balls headed past the umpire and into the stands… and all the runners advance home. At times some EXTRA pro's are requird and that’s it, period.

Right now I have this fellow taking down two huge oak trees before Mother Nature brings them down on our home. The guy is 80 feet in the air topping the thing swing like an ape. Yet, he knows what he’s doing with safety lines, hard hat and the whole works. He even has a guy on the ground to catch him first bounce or a fly.

I also know what I’m doing. Hiring a guy to do a job that just a few years ago I would have tried to do and failed. So here’s to all the Jimmy Olson and Roger our lumberjack. He’s got to be out of his gord dangling 80' high on a 3" branch?
