"Life is short; connect, do good, have fun!"





Scroll down to learn why I made this site and for my contact info.

Welcome to my vastly remodeled site!

Hi, I'm Jim!

"Connect, do good, have fun" is how I have come to live life and it has been deeply satisfying on many levels. I value connections with people at all levels (especially close connections), try to have positive impacts on the world, and enjoy outdoor activities.

I invite you to explore the ten sections of my site to learn about my interests and activities and how they embody my motto. Then ask yourself:

  • Do you relate to some of these? Or is your interest piqued? If so, let's meet... I'm retired so have a little more time now.

  • Are you a part of an organization looking for help with something along these lines? I may be able to volunteer (I live in Madison, Wisconsin).

Connect

You can reach me in the following ways; email is the best (unless you can catch me on the phone):

  • Email: jimwink - madison <that 'a'-like symbol> yahoo.com (you'll need to type this address into your email program using the '@' symbol and no spaces; I'm trying to avoid SPAM).

  • Mobile: (Madison area code) - 3 3 4 - 7 2 5 1 (email or FB messenger preferred to texting).

  • Land line: 2 5 9 - 1 8 1 2 (area code 6 0 8 for both).

  • Facebook, Skype, FaceTime, & Zoom: Yes!

I use the pronouns he/him, though I'm also comfortable with my softer, more feminine side of the gender expression continuum.
