Contents
Name
His given name is Corky, but also has been referred to as James by Nelson.
Appearances
He can often be seen hanging around Nelson, Kearney, and Dolph, and he is generally acknowledged as the leader of this clique.
Interests
He enjoys intimidating his schoolmates and shoplifting.
Religion
Despite his reputation as a bully and delinquent, it is significant that it is sometimes hinted that Jimbo is in fact Christian, with strong moral standards.
Father
Jimbo Jones Senior is briefly seen in episode Ice Cream Margie(With Light Blue Hair)when Homer attracts people from the divorced club to come to his ice cream van. He looks like Jimbo Jones except is taller and has less hair and has goofy teeth.
Mother
It is hinted that he comes from a well-off family, displayed when — with the school closed for a teacher's strike — he and his mother watch soap operas and sip tea together in a very nice living room. This posh lifestyle seems to have been changed after this episode. Several references are made to his mother, called Carol, being a prostitute, who makes excuses about going to the bank, so that she can pick up clients. She sometimes walks around topless, which impresses Jimbo's friends.
