I've Got Mr. Hanky The X'mas Poo!

First it was the grilled cheese sandwich, then Britney’s pregnancy test, Angelina’s ultrasound. And the most out of this world acquisition of them all, William Shatner’s kidney stone.

Now this GoldenPalace.com online casino has purchased a piece of metal sheet for $1500 because it (allegedly) bears the face of Jesus and the nativity scene. Adding to their collection of, uhm i don’t know, useless junks?

The "sacred" metal sheet was discovered by a hardware employee, who showed it to his friends who countered him and said it’s no Jesus but Jim Morrison’s face that was imprinted on the artifact.

"There is no doubt that an image of a face appears in this item," said GoldenPalace.com CEO Richard Rowe. "Whether it’s Jesus, Jim Morrison, or anyone else is in the eye of the beholder. This item has definitely sparked interest and debate however. It will make a great addition to the collection of religious items we will be taking on tour later this year. People will see and decide for themselves."

So now they’re considered religious items. If that’s the case shouldn’t the church start getting cuts from these holy auctions on ebay?

People who saw a photo of the Jesus sighting on a metal sheet have different opinions. Some totally believe it was indeed Christ, some offered different possibilities:

I don’t know what Jesus looks like, so I really can’t tell you if this is him or not. I’m thinking this is the image of Regis Philbin.

Here’s the point: First, seeing pictures of Jesus on everything from a piece of toast to freeway underpasses to a piece of sheet metal is akin to seeing animals in the clouds. An ordinary imagination can connect those dots, an active one… well, these recurring stories say it all.

I myself looked closely at the pics until my vision went wanko, but I couldn’t see Jesus nor his birthday party. Then again I don’t want to start any blasphemous rumors coz this may be one of God’s sick sense of humor (yeah, yeah I borrowed that from an ’80s song).

BTW, I’ve been looking at my morning discharges lately and I think I’m seeing some famous people’s faces forming on them. Anybody interested?
