he feels he has been blessed as he has won all that money at a nearby casino? isn't gambling a sin?
and why is he selling it anyway - especially to the highest bidder ... "the love of money is the root of all evil" ... is that in the bible or did someone else make that up?

I will admit he is a pretty good artist, though.  |

If it's a sacred image of Mary, which I doubt, seriously, it's grilled cheese..I would have gone...wtf, and kept on munching on it cuz I was hungry. And when you sell something like that that's like...lessening it's value, somewhat. But I don't believe it's real, I don't believe it was in a box for 10 years, either. I think that's awfully lame that if it's a real image he/she hasn't found the true meaning of why it appeared to them. Though, I gotta say there's better things to appear on than grilled cheese. |

I made grilled cheese yesterday and I was going to chisel out an image take a picture and post it here, but it smelled so good and I decided to eat it anyway.
But what do you guys think? Do you think we should have a competition to see who can chisel out the best picture (of anything)?

If it's a sacred image of Mary, which I doubt, seriously, it's grilled cheese..I would have gone...wtf, and kept on munching on it cuz I was hungry. I would have done the same thing. Besides, if the Virgin Mary did decide to show herself in a "divine sighting" I doubt she would choose someone's grilled cheese sandwhich... I once saw an article about a glass building in Clearwater, FL where ppl thought they saw the image of the Virgin Mary, and Catholics and all sorts of people were arguieing over who would buy the building, etc. Personally, I find the whole thing slightly disturbing. |

So, I saw Jesus in a leaf once. Yup. I think he likes playing "hide-and-go-seek" 'cause people keep asking me if I've found him, and I tell them about the leaf, but they look at me like I'm crazy. He's got powers, doesn't he? He could very well have been hiding in that leaf!  |

While looking for some avatars for the season, I came acroos the picture of the woman who sold it on this page looks a lot like the woman in the movie Beethoven. You know... the irresponsible babysitter that was playing the piano while the little girl was drowning in the pool? Anybody? |
