New York bros, take notice. He’s funny.
6 hours ago: “Got a few minutes in airport. Any questions. Keep them short so I can retweet and respond. Please no questions about my big dick.”
And so went a pretty long Q&A with the fans. Nice.
Okay, let’s rate Jim’s tweets. Certainly very responsive to fans. Good mix of plugs and other stuff. I give Jim an 8 for Style, an 8 for Insanity and a 10 for Mustness. That’s an overall score of 9. Yay! Follow Jim.
