A Cheesy Jesus

Oh, Lord…

Here we go again: a woman in Missouri claims she’s found a Jesus-shaped cheeto. What is it with these sightings? From the Jesus tortilla to the virgin Mary sandwich, from pretzels to fish sticks to Pizza Hut billboards, no junk food is safe from the claws of these religiously deluded, eBay-dwelling nut jobs. Apparently, the people that insist on finding a higher power residing in their club sandwiches are suffering from something called Pareidolia, a “Psychological phenomenon involving a vague and random stimulus (often an image or sound) being perceived as significant”. (Source: Wikipedia)

The latest find comes from Kelly Ramey, and at least she’s aware that the whole deal is more funny than anything else. Others agree with her:

 

Kelly Ramey’s friend, Sue Edelman, sees something different. “I looked again and I thought a horse head.”

Now that’s a woman I could get along with.

Let’s wait and see what the cheeto sells for when Kelly decides to take it out of the safe deposit box. If you’re not going to eat it, you might as well make some money off of it.

Dirty Fish Stories

In Alexandria, Va., John and Yvonne Ho of Yvonne Hair and Nail Salon have cornered the market on Fish Pedicures. That’s right; customers can stick their feet in individual tanks where tiny carp, called Garra Rufa,  will eat the dead skin off their callused feet. Gross? I think so.

However, not quite as gross as what the residents of Oahu, Honolulu have to put up with. After a giant dead sperm whale was transported to Hawaii Pacific University to be used as teaching tools, several chunks of decomposing flesh fell off the truck and stank up main street.

“The smell just lingers,” said Richard Kurosu, who lives near a corner in Kaneohe where several whale parts littered the road for more than two hours.

 

Rosie Should Have Finished Her Off

 Annoying? What, me?

Jesse Jackson made a big oops today, and the nation is falling all over him. I’m sure that an argument can be made that he’s a proven hypocrite, okay; however, I’m equally sure that those of us who have kids act equally hypocritical on a daily basis. Telling others not to do something, while continuing to do it ourselves; well, it’s hardly a new thing. 

Don’t get me wrong, he should still watch his words a lot more carefully, but I think the real shame is that his behavior caused an eternal media loop of Elizabeth Hasselbeck’s strange rant. Now that really offends me.

Shut up, Hasselbeck. Reverend Jackson may be a hypocrite, but you’re so bloody annoying, you make my skin crawl. Why are you still on TV?
