I don't think it's that surprising. We have plenty of sightings of the Virgin Mary over here. It seems to be a Catholic thing. For some reason, Protestants don't see the Virgin Mary in things Catholics do.

In New Haven, Connecticut, for example-a city with a large Italian-American population-there was a tree with a knot in it that seemed to portray the face of Mary, as least to a lot of people. That caused people to make a line that stretched around the block to witness it-a tree in a public park.

A few years later, there was not so much a physical object but reported repeated sightings of an image of Mary appearing suddenly in a suburban backyard in New Jersey, cuasing traffic to back up for miles as people poured in weekly to see the image. The newspapers and radio started calling it a "Catholic Woodstock".

Trev, I se that Australia has a greater Catholic population than America. Surely they muist have their sightings as well. Or is this purely an American phenomenon?

As for the grilled cheese sandwich-well, it was only a matter of time before the Mary sightings spilled over into Ebay. Everything else does.

None that i know of, everyone in Aust drinks so we tend to see other stuff lol

I have seen stuff fly through the air though, 4 points of light coming from diff directions faster then a satelite, they all met up and tore off in the same direction, duno what that was but they went fast.

I see the auctioneer disqualified some bidders, as it's down to seven bids and $7,600 now.

I've got a tortilla with the image of John Curl on it. I think I'll post an ad in the Trading Post and see what I can get for it.
