Jim Pembroke is retired and lives permanently on his sailboat where he blogs at jimselbow.wordpress.com, when he can get an internet connection. He is interested in all things political and enjoys discovering a peculiar perspective. He also tweets @Jim_Pembroke where he's met some wonderful people and had some very odd encounters, to boot. For the most part, he holds on tight and enjoys the breeze – trying not to go overboard.
