No it’s not Justin Timberlake’s birthday!
Today is my dear friend James G Thornley’s birthday! I’d like to take a few minutes to tell you about him.
He is an excellent chef and a BBQ master. Takes him forever to clean the grate though.
He loves adventure and has traveled the world.
He enjoys canning vegetables, even when he has stayed up until 4am partying the night before.
He grew up on a farm and still enjoys a good pony ride.
He's feisty though his bark is much worse then his bite.
He has more friends than anyone I know...
...ironically he will not join Facebook! ...ironically two hot birds and a Turkey.
He enjoys a good hike, here he is on a Haleakala in Maui...
...and here he is on Piestewa Peak in Arizona
He is quite the swinger!...
... incidentally he also enjoys golfing.
He and actor Michael Keaton share a similar profile.
He is thoughtful...
...and always has a rebel yell chambered and at the ready.
A few little known facts about James. He raised birmingham roller pigeons in his youth and used to show them at the PNE!. His favourite pigeon was named Bernice, sadly she was attacked by a hawk while James was training her. He was an extra on 21 Jumpstreet, Johnny Depp often stays at James home while in Vancouver!. Okay that’s not true at all, but he was on 21 Jumpstreet. He enjoys the odd pint of beer and occasionally dips into a glass of Crown Royal.
Seriously though Jamie you are truly a great friend, you have a big compassionate heart and your loyalty never waivers. You have learned to endure my close walking in the mall, my incessant arm bars and my steam rolls while on vacations.
Happy Birthday buddy!
