Image of Virgin Mary Seen in Ceiling Tile [Developing]
Can eBay Auction Be Far Behind?

Sure there was the salt stain that believers thought was an image of the Virgin Mary. Sure there was the VM grilled-cheese sandwich auctioned on ebay for 28 large. In fact, there have always been strange things auctioned on ebay, including one woman's virginity.

But now MSNBC reports that Mary has shown up in a ceiling tile. Apparently, the woman who lives in the apartment wants to auction off the "artifact" to give her kids a real Christmas. Time for eBay!

Blogenfreude remembers when a sandwich was just a sandwich.

My cat, while shining her butt on the carpet after a particularly nasty dump, left a duplicate of the Shroud of Turin.

How much am I offered?

Sigh. Why does the religious right always try to see the holy in inanimate objects, but never, it seems, in their fellow human beings?

Like, I was drunk the other night, and I went to take a pee and I missed the toilet, but I was too drunk to notice, so I didn't see it until the morning, and when I had to go again in the morning I went in there and there was, like, this stain on the carpet, see, and I went, "JESUS CHRIST!" because that's what it was! It was Jesus! And I had to go outside to pee because I couldn't pee with Jesus looking at me like that. So I got out my exacto knife and I cut it out real careful, and I was gonna auction in off on eBay, but it must have been invisible pee or something, because I put it in the microwave to dry and when I took it out Jesus was gone. The kitchen stunk pretty bad though.

Maybe this item will appear in an upcoming Bush Co. speech on the power of free markets. In the meantime, I hope her kids have a wonderful Christmas.

What next in this world of miracles? Our Harry Hound just left the Three Kings in the driveway this morning. M
