Wow. Tim actually looks much better sporting that salt n pepper beard than he did when I knew him 20+ years ago.
He's a weird one, and I can't really seem to get a straight bead on him. One thing I know for a fact is that he is a die hard programmie, since he's still doing that same old song and dance, but there are lots of conflicting stories about him. My impression of him was of a dude who seemed a bit on the juvenile side. Melodramatic, hyper, somewhat lecherous in vibe, but certainly not to the extent of some of the other staff, such as rookey.
I didn't really think too much of him either way when I was there. Not one of my favorites, but I knew that raps with him weren't going to be too brutal, since his objective was really to just get everyone to cry their eyes out.
I hear stories from CB grads that say he was the only nice guy there, while I had an RMA alum confide in me about his private one-on-one "smoosh" sessions he would have with the male students, which I believe was corroborated by someone else.
Anyway, it's staff like this who I find the most interesting, since they seem to be the most difficult to pin down. They tend to fly under the radar by hiding in plain sight. You could have hours long conversations with him and he seems like the nicest guy in the world, but then again, he's still in the program, believes in it, and advocates it, so... hmmm.
Caroline, Rookey, Randy, etc.. those guys are easy, because they were such big jerkfaces. While Tim could be likened to a big, slightly retarded teddy bear with grabby hands.
