(S)he Appears On Seashells By The Seashore

It might sound fishy, but a California man is selling a seashell with an image of the Virgin Mary on eBay, of all places. Or maybe it’s Jesus. The shell’s owner, David Johnson, isn’t sure. Neither is Father Hanna Sakkab of St. George Antiochian Orthodox Church in City Heights who, according to the San Diego Union-Tribune, thought “it evoked either Jesus Christ or the Virgin Mary, crowned with a halo and carrying a baby.” Johnson found it on a beach in Monterey, CA and held onto it for a year. It would look great on a puka shell necklace.

Holy Sheet!

The Daily Mail reports that an image of the Virgin Mary has appeared on an Australian bedsheet. The sheet was spotted in a Salvation Army store outside Melbourne, Australia. Named The Shroud of St Kilda, it’s naturally for sale on eBay. Starting price is $10,000.00 Australian, which is about US$7,783.00. Not bad for a sheet with a stain that looks like Che Guevera…or is it Daniel Boone?

No Wonder Her Granddaughter Looks Like An Angel

An Ohio woman says if you turn an ultrasound picture of her granddaughter upside down you can see the face of Jesus. She’s had the picture hanging on the wall for four years but never noticed the image until she recently turned it over. Is she seeing Jesus or dollar signs on eBay?

Giving Satan Equal Time

Lucky the turtle was the only animal to survive a pet store fire in Indiana. Store owner Bryan Dora says that, as a result, the image of Satan appeared on the turtle’s shell, complete with goatee and pointy horns. Amazingly, he’s produced a DVD of the turtle’s story and plans to auction it — and Lucky — online. So far the closest thing on eBay is a “Turtle Towel Personalized Dora Print,” perfect for drying off possessed reptiles. At left is a non-artist’s rendering of what we imagine Lucky’s shell looks like. After the DVD release we’ll find out for sure.

Salty Salvation

A mother and daughter in Nebraska are selling a Rold Gold Honey Mustard Pretzel on eBay that they say looks like the Virgin Mary holding baby Jesus. They hope to get $1,000 so the daughter can buy a horse. (Advice: Stop squinting so much. It’s a pretzel. One that sort of looks like a treble clef.)

The Shroud of Teflon

First there was the grilled cheese sandwich with the image of the Virgin Mary burned into it that sold for $28,000 on eBay. Now a man in Prairie Lea, TX has a frying pan with Jesus’ face staring up from the bottom. He hasn’t decided what to do with it yet, but if GoldenPalace.com, the online casino that bought the grilled Mary sandwich, has any sense at all they’ll buy the frying pan and cook up one hell–I mean, heck–of a last supper.
