Is His Bark Worse Than His Bite?
It started last Monday when Jim Holtz was on the way to a pawn shop. He looked across the street at the Hickey-Freeman Co. clothing factory and saw the image of Jesus on a silver maple tree. Now people are flocking to Rochester, NY, to check out the arboreal sighting. Many claim to see facial features, including the beard. One man says, “He looks like he’s sleeping.” Shhhh!

Flipping Over The Pope
Myrna Kincaid of Jackson, Michigan, was about to pour syrup on her pancake when she noticed an image burned on it — the image of the Pope. She and her husband spared it, stashed it in the freezer, and went to church. Three weeks to the day after finding the pan-fried pontiff they had a baby boy. They named him John and say he never cries. They currently have no plans to either sell or eat the pancake.

Why Do You Think It’s Called A SON-o-gram?
Another spiritual ultrasound has surfaced. The first two (see: 1, 2) were in Ohio but it seems the miracle has moved westward to Valencia, CA. So much for California setting the trends. While the doctors saw a child at 8 weeks, 4 days, Anthony and Xaviera Fierro say they see the outline of the Blessed Mother. They claim it’s “an actual printout,” and it’s “not a joke.” It is, of course, available on eBay.

A Message From Ant Mary
Images of Jesus Christ and the Virgin Mary have been discovered on leaves in the rain forests of Brazil, and they were made by ants! A biologist says the tiny holes in the guava, mango and other fruit trees couldn’t have been made by humans. Reverend Antonio Maria says he saw ants cut out an image of the Virgin Mary on a palm tree branch in two hours. As further proof, they say one of the leaves is inscribed with the word “pas,” which they believe to be a misspelled version of the Portuguese for peace, “paz.” Hey, they’re ants, you can’t expect them to be great spellers, you know.

Rorschach Nativity
People from around the globe have traveled to Vermilion, Ohio, over the past year to see mold stains on the back of a Nativity scene that look like Jesus Christ. I mean, the Virgin Mary. Okay, the pope. “It started with about five images that we could recognize,” said Roger Hanson, whose wife, Elizabeth, owns Abigail’s Antiques & Emporium. “Now it’s up to about 12.” When they got the wooden Nativity scene it was completely covered with mold. They tried to scrub it off with a toothbrush, blast it with an air compressor and use a heavy brush. Finally they washed it with dish soap. The mold grew back. Hanson looked at it and saw a profile of the Virgin Mary. His wife saw Jesus Christ. Others have seen the pope, a burro’s head, a hand holding a chalice, a Catholic cardinal, a halo over Christ’s head, an upside-down crown, three palm branches on Christ’s head, a celestial hand and Jesus’ hand extended outward. They’ve been offered $10,000 for it but won’t sell.

Virgin Doorway
A door from the home of Roger Culver, Flatrock, Michigan, was burned two different times. The result is what he believes to be a scorched image the Blessed Virgin Mary. And a moneymaker on eBay. As a door it’s expensive. As a previously unknown copy of Munch’s The Scream, it’s a steal.
