Holy Cow

A local news station, desperate for news, ran two stories yesterday I could've done without. One was about a cat owner who sees an image of Jesus in her cat's fur. The other was about a plumber who sees an image of the Virgin Mary in a stain in a sink.

I couldn't see what they were seeing, and rarely can when these dumb things show up. Elvis in your grilled cheese. The Pope in a fire. Mary in the window of an office building. And it's always Jesus, Mary and Elvis. How did Elvis make that grade? Oh, well. Maybe some people get a faith lift out of imagining this stuff.

But until your dairy cow sports an image of Jesus like the one below, I won't be seeing what you're seeing.

  • Did you hear the story about the 50 people who went blind staring at the sun? Seriously, someone told them they'd see the Virgin Mary if they stared long enough.

    Whoops!

  • @Jet: Well from all the sightings you'd think that fat bastard was the 13th apostle or the portly incarnation of Christ.


    @Ripley: I'm sure these people would also stand in front of a glory hole long enough if you told them the second coming of Jesus was on its way... The only problem would be that this particular Jesus is a Hispanic taxi driver rather than the lord.
