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?

Salt Of The Earth…I Mean, Heavens
A shrine has popped up by an expressway underpass in Chicago where people say salt stains on the concrete look like the Virgin Mary. Believers are flocking to the site even though the new Pope has made no public comment about it nor booked a flight yet.
POSTSCRIPT: On May 6th a man was arrested for scrawling the words “big lie” over the stain. Authorities then painted over the whole thing. R.I.P.
LATER THE SAME DAY: The Chicago Tribune reports that, like Jason, the image is back. “One or more people somehow began to remove the paint. It was not known how they did it, but by afternoon, the image was back largely intact and apparently with no sign of the graffiti that had marred it.”

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.

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.

Cheesy Souvenirs
Goldenpalace.com, an Internet casino, paid $28,000 for a grilled cheese sandwich with a burned image of the Virgin Mary on it. Diane Duyser held onto it for 10 years and says she won $70,000 at a casino thanks to the sandwich. She figured it was time to take a loss on it by selling it for less than her potential future winnings because, well, she must need the tax write-off.
