Webb Wilder Member Since: July 2003	Hell, maybe I don't know what 'emeritus" means! HE is still in the band! He does this other thing on Sundays sometimes at Robert's with the Chris Casello trio and they've asked me to sit in with 'em on Sunday. Guess I need to get out my dictionary. Sorry for any confusion! WW

TommyLee Member Since: March 2005 Wilderian since 1988 Wilderian since 1988	Oh, good! Thank you, Webb. We LOVE Jimmy. He's such a great drummer, and a true character as well. Of course, we don't have to ride around with him in a van... I got a kick out of this, especially the "bishop" part: Emeritus ( /ɨˈmɛrɨtəs/; plural emeriti; abbreviation emer.) is a post-positive adjective that is used to designate a retired professor, bishop, or other professional or as a title.

Webb Wilder Member Since: July 2003	Well, I mis-used the word. We love him, too! Jimmy IS a great drummer AND a TRUE character! Some of his contributions to "hot van topics" over the years have been priceless enhancements to the lives of all van transportees (there I go again! Wonder what that means?) I'll guarantee ya! WW
