Seen Jesus lately? Me neither.
Early this morning I caught a news story about another image-of-Jesus spotting. This time, the face of Jesus appeared in Forest, Va. after a paint can was lifted off a garage floor.
You're jealous, right? Well fret not, you can buy it for yourself on eBay.
The paint-stain Jesus reminded me of the Virgin Mary Grilled Cheese that GoldenPalace.com purchased a few years ago for $28,000.
So I walked into work this morning chock-full of optimism. Maybe those e-mails my grandmother keeps forwarding are right, and Jesus is everywhere. My eyes were peeled, ready, awaiting my first image-of-Jesus-where-you-wouldn't-expect-it spotting.
And then, there it was!
Wait, isn't that the kangaroo from the Aussie Hair Products commercials?
I guess it wasn't meant to be. But for anyone who has a severe hankering to have his/her own Jesus, Mary or Oprah on toast, CoolToast.com let's you create your own. (If you try this, be sure to click "Mohammad" and "Lohan".)

I just don't think it is very funny to make fun of people who see Jesus in things...oh wait, yes I do. Your perspective always puts a smile on my face!

Ok...so this is what I don't get....why does it have to be Jesus and the Virgin Mary? Why can't it be..."wow, there's an image of a guy with a beard on my garage floor"...or "Hey is that a lady on my grilled cheese." It could be anyone...not just Mary and Jesus?
Tha kangaroo, however, is unmistakeable. :)
