After a 35-year career that started in the early 70s as a watchman for SCNO Barge Line, Mr. Jim Fox joined the industry during college and was called back to it after a brief jaunt as a teacher. After ACBL acquired SCNO barge line, he found himself in Venezuela helping develop an improved river transportation system for their bauxite mine and alumina production facilities with a few previous guests from the show, went into Argentina for similar pursuits, and later found himself in Colombia surveying another waterway for Trafigura. Since leaving the industry, he spent time employed by the Minnesota Twins teaching English to the Spanish speakers on the team, and keeps busy chasing grandkids and family around Florida.
