Holy Pair Gets Stoned
Last week Ethel Hartman of Jackson Township, Ohio was awakened by a mysterious flash of light shining on her bed. The next day her son was working in the garden when he came across a rock with the image of the Virgin Mary on it. He then found one adorned with Jesus Christ. The family welcomes people to come and see the rocks. They live just outside Massillon, in Jackson Township, at the corner of Amhearst and Traphagen Street. This place rocks. [map]

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.”

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.

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.
