Jimmy was born in Texas, grew up nominally Protestant, but at age 20 experienced a profound conversion to Christ. Planning on becoming a Protestant seminary professor, he started an intensive study of the Bible. But the more he immersed himself in Scripture the more he found to support the Catholic faith, and in 1992 he entered the Catholic Church. His conversion story, "A Triumph and a Tragedy," is published in Surprised by Truth.

“Rare Eye-eating Pygmy Iguanas Perch on the Glasses of Unsuspecting Human”
I just saved a bunch of money on my new glasses by switching to geico.
I said Bi-focals not Bio-Logicals.
Chalmeleons, I don’t see no stinkin Chalmeleons.
1.Spectacular chameleons.
2.A bespectacled man and his be-chameleoned spectacles
3. “must check these glasses – I seem to be seeing double”
4. ” Wow! So that’s how Marty Feldman learned to rotate his eyeballs!”
“Bi”
“Foc”
“Als”
A look at one of the little-known works by M.C. Escher that no one could figure out.
You want colors – we have colors.
Oh! ye’ll take the high road and I’ll take the low road . . . .
A take on hanging pot ornaments, these eyeglass ornaments hook around the edge of the wearer’s specticals and look like real lizards. Since their introduction on Thursday, a million units have bee ordered and shipped. They retail for $1.95 + tax a piece at Walmart.com
GEICO: you don’t need glasses to see we are number 1
These are “Seeing Eye Chameleons.”
This photograph fails to show the two chameleons clinging to the other lens.
If the blind wearer needs to turn right, the chameleons on the right lens tap his face with their tails; if to the left, the corresponding chameleons tap.
If the blind wearer needs to step up as onto a curb, the chameleons on the top tap their tails; if down, the chameleons on the bottom.
To signal “Stop” all four chameleons press and hold their tails against the wearer’s face. To signal “Go” they withdraw their tails. To signal “Back Up” all four rhythmicaly tap in unison.
Should the wearer regain his sight, the chameleons change colors to signal “Stop” (red), “Go” (green), “Caution” or “Slow” (yellow).
They are also useful to the sighted wearer who simply wishes to read or watch a video while driving.
They can be sent back to “Seeing Eye Chameleon School” should the Catholic wearer desire their support in averting his eyes from engaging in immodest glances. Chameleons so-trained use their sticky tongues to pull the wearers eyelids shut, but still have their tails free to direct the wearer’s steps.
For the extra-devout, the Chameleons can keep the eyes free of specks, so the wearer can more efficiently see and remove the TIMBERS from the eyes of OTHERS.
At long last, the Budweiser iguanas find new advertising gig for Lenscrafters!
