Time for another episode of "Jesus' Face Appears In....."
Man Claims Jesus Appeared In Pasta Dish

SNIP:
A man in California claims the image of Jesus
appeared to him while he was eating a plate of manicotti
at an Italian restaurant, according to a Local 6 News report.


SNIP:
"I looked at the plate and before I started to eat it
I thought, I'm not sure about this," Williams said.
"So, we called the hostess. She came over and just got chills.
The next thing you know you got the cameras coming out.
You got people who are eating here coming to our table to see it.
They just had chills. There were about 100 people taking pictures."

Williams said since the lunch,
a chronic stomach problem he has had since birth has vanished.

OK, DUers, who had "pasta dish" in the Jesus pool?

1. I don't get it? What bit is supposed to look like jesus?
That must be some awesomely close ressemblance then... or perhaps it's invisible to us heretics?

5. "Invisible to heretics" is all I can figure, too.
I really wonder just what the hell is wrong with some people.

And when I realize that these folks are FREE TO WALK THE STREETS....
then I get scared, and need to drop by the Lounge for awhile!

19. It's true that it's always Jesus' face. Why not, say, some guy you saw on
the train (TM)? I'll tell you WHY....

Donald Rumsfeld is giving the President his daily briefing. He concludes by saying: "Yesterday, three Brazilian soldiers were killed."

"OH NO!" the President exclaims. "That's terrible!"

His staff sits stunned at this display of emotion, nervously watching as the President sits, head in hands.

Finally, the President looks up and asks, "How many is a brazillion?"

20. I just spent 45 seconds leaning over so my head was upside down...
And as the blood rushed to my brain, I realized that
you are a pretty clever practical joker.

You TOTALLY got me! Strong work!

23. I see Dick Cheney's liver, but no Jesus.
And whatever that is, it doesn't look even remotely edible. Kind of looks like a filthy Texaco latrine on a truck route or something.

24. Dammit... My money was on Nutmeg sprinkle on latte foam...
Manicotti was SO predictable for a Jesus image.

BTW... I'm I going to be damned for NOT being able to see the Jesus image in that picture?

25. If you are damned for that, you will have a lot of company!
Just as CallMeWesley said above, I am a VISUAL person.

I can see things in clouds, cracks in walls, shadows on the grass....
you name it, I can see something in it.

But not this time.

The only REAL story here is the fact that someone
actually PAID MONEY for a plate of food that
was covered in stuck-on, burnt-to-charcoal CRAP.

If I get a plate as disgusting and nasty as that mess, I send it back.
Then I calmly leave the building, without pausing at the cash register.

29. Mmmmmm, was that with the special LSD sauce?
I suppose if you look at it one way, you're supposed to see the face Jesus, and in another way, that of an old woman, like that optical illusion. Or a chalice. Or two faces. Or a bat. Or stairs going up. Or stairs coming down. What I see is the baby from Eraserhead. Or an Aztec prince. Or maybe it's ET.

If he's RC, of course, he should be used to it, since he eats Jesus every Sunday anyway. Do you suppose the plate of pasta actually transsubstantiated as well? In that case, he should have called the host, not the hostess.

And where are the extant photographs of Jesus for him to compare it to? For all he knew, he could have seen one of Saddam Hussein's sons in the pasta. It certainly resembles the photographs of them after they were killed.

And finally, why is does the story specifically mention that it was manicotti? Oh, I know -- it's so people wouldn't assume it was a visitation from the Flying Spaghetti Monster, touching Mr Williams with his noodly appendage.

34. You have a great porn name.
By the way, that's not Jesus in the photo, but a very cleverly disguised Meryl Streep. And what's that she's holding? It looks like she's been doing some crocheting and her needlework is getting soaked through with stigmata blood.

35. Mom deserves all the credit for my name. And Streep?
I should have guessed. That's exactly the kind of role she would play.
I feel so foolish now!:rofl:
