your take that jim was only succeeding because he was failing reminded me of catch 22.
which in turn reminded me of orr. who is sort of a benning like character and who ultimately prevailed against catch 22.
that's all there was to it. sorry you didn't enjoy the reference.
Your statement of 'everyone thought he was a complete idiot but he had a great plan he was executing perfectly' seemed to be a pretty direct allusion to Benning and the stealth tank theory, which I have little patience for.
