I ain't Speedy Gonzales.

I'll accept being called Giacomo or Vaclav -- the names for James in Italian and Czech. Obviously, I prefer Jim. My nickname. I try to avoid James. Another thing, I abhor being tagged Speedy Jim or Speedy Giacomo or Speedy Vaclav or Speedy anything. Because I'm trying to live at an extraordinarily slow and leisurely pace. It's good for my health --mentally, physically, emotionally. I detest being in a hurry. I want all the time in the world to savort/linger over every precious moment. Let me proceed at a snail's pace. No sense in quickening the journey to the end of my wonderful life. --Jim Broede
