Jonesborough resident Jim Stevens admits he's not a particularly religious person, but even he is awed by what he has seen nearly every morning for the last couple of weeks on the driver's side window of his Isuzu pickup truck.
It was two weeks ago today that an image, resembling the face of Jesus, made its first appearance on the window. Stevens, who said he has a "bum shoulder," was having friends from Rogersville help move some items. He entered his truck from the passenger's side to put his drink inside the vehicle. He said when he went around the truck to the driver's side, the image was there. Initially, Stevens said he figured the image would go away and that would be the end of it.
But since it first showed up, a morning dew has led to the appearance of the image. Later in the day, when the dew from the morning evaporates, Stevens said the image goes with it. However, when the dew returns the next morning so does the image on the window. Even rolling the window up and down has not stopped it from reappearing.
Stevens said no matter who sees the image, the reaction is the same, as a recent trip to the grocery store proved. He said a woman at the store had seen the image prior to him entering. By the time Stevens had bought a few small items, a number of the store's employees and patrons had been out to catch of glimpse his window.
"There was no doubt when they came out they saw what they saw," he said.
Stevens said he has not done anything to or had anything in the truck to explain the sudden appearance of the image. However, he's not ready to see it go.
"Of course, I'm not going to wash it," he said of the window.
Stevens said he believes strange things happen and that he has no explanation for the image on his truck's window.
"Why it happened to me, I don't know," he said. "I have no idea."

That's SUCH obvious bullshit! And the guy is getting publicity for it.
Bet I know how he did it...... :biggrin: My son-in-law who was in the Air Force did something similar to my son-in-laws car who was in the Navy only he put words instead of a picture, well he did put the Air Force wings, and it only showed up when the car was wet. :rotfl: :rotfl:
Ok. 'Splain it. How is it done? I have a few people I'd like to play that kind of practical joke on. ;D

I'll have to get a ahold of him to ask for sure since it's been about 20yrs I've forgotten the complete details but it was funny. The son-in-law didn't notice it until he got into the mountains in a fog on the way back to W VA and he 'bout crapped when it appeared on his hood. He knew my other son-in-law, John, had done something but not what. I forget what Jim did to John because John won the gold medal for that one. It was friendly rivalry and very entertaining to have them both on leave and home at the same time 'cause you never knew what was going to happen.
This is one way I have done it in the past. (I used to freak out one of my ex's by drawing a skull and crossbones on the mirror using this method).
Make a weak solution of soap and water. Use as little soap as possible in order to minimize any residue left on the window / mirror once it dries. Dip your finger or a paint brush into this solution and draw what you want, let it dry. Once it fogs up or "re-wets" there you have it!
I used to draw on the bathroom mirror when it was fogged up after getting out of the shower. Then turn on the fan and let it clear. Next person taking a shower finds it when they get out. Used to freak out my ex! :biggrin:
This method can also work just using the oil from your skin. Get the window or mirror fogged up, draw your message or picture, then let it clear. Next time it fogs your work will magically reappear. Wash the window/mirror with windex and it will be gone. . .
You can also make writing appear on the surface of cars, etc. when it snows.
(Works best on an unwaxed surface)
Get some car wax and write your message in it. Use as little as you can, and wipe it off as soon as it dries. (Be sure to only wipe within the letter areas though, or it will smear).
Once it snows the snow will stick to the unwaxed surfaces, but slide off the waxed areas, leaving your message.
(I've also seen the magic picture thing done with this method as well. Get the old kind of "glass wax" since it leaves virtually no residue).
Thanks PH.
Do you think that's how they made ole' Jeebus show up on the truck window?
Don't know what PH thinks but that's the first thing that went through my mind. :yes:

I'm betting it is exactly how they did it. The old foggie may not even realize his wife/granddaughter/grandson did it, and now there's so much publicity they are embarrassed to admit it! :rolleyes:
Well if he thinks that crap is miraculous, he's clearly lost his marbles.
Well, he's living in a trailer with chicken wire fencing, and just one look tells yah he's not playing with a full deck. . . :biggrin:
What never ceases to amaze me is that these images of geebuz always look like the same white guy when there weren't any white people living in the middle east during the time when he was supposed to have been alive.
