After taking a bite from her sandwich, she realized that a woman’s face was staring back at her. The grilled cheese sandwich sat on the woman’s nightstand… and after she’d saved it for 10 years “She said the sandwich has never sprouted a spore of mold.” Clearly, something supernatural is going on. The woman believes it is the image of the Virgin Mary. Yes–but did she appear so that the woman would be able to extract $28K from an online c*sino? “In a statement, GoldenP*lace.com CEO Richard Rowe said he planned to use the sandwich to raise money for charity.” Umm, Richard, you could have just given $28K to charity. It would make a nice little endowment. What is he going to do now, to make the sandwich worth more than $28K? So, we’ve got capitalizing on a Marian apparition, by selling it to a gam*ling enterprise, so they can offer charity… There’s so much weirdness in this sequence of events, I don’t even know where to begin… CNN.com – ‘Virgin Mary’ sandwich sells on eBay for $28,000 – Nov 23, 2004 Update: loyal readers will have seen my comments about nasty bots that post comments with g*mbling-related names and URLs. It’s the reason that, for now, I have an email field in my comments form. Well, I have probably had 15 of these comments to various postings since I began blogging a month ago. But since I posted this message, I’ve had 27 more, in about a day. So… I have gone into this message and added asterixes to all references to g*mbling. Maybe I am being paranoid, but writing about their favorite topic seems to have brought on the bots. (It isn’t so bad, you know. What if the spam came from the Virgin Mary? Now that would be freaky…)
