faces

[low_delta]

How come whenever someone thinks they can make out a face in a random interplay of light and form, they always say it's either Jesus, his mother or the devil? What's up with that? I've always had to deal with the jesus thing, because I have long hair and a beard. Ethnicity aside, do I really even look like the sterotypical version of Our Saviour? Not much. It's just the hair. So why is it that a feminine face is equated with Mary? What the heck did she look like, anyway?

You've probably heard about this grilled cheese sandwich. I wonder when the lady decided the image looked like The Virgin Mary. She saw the face immediately, and put it away. I guess the fact that after ten years, that there's no mold on it means that it really is Her? I dont think it looks like Mary. I think it looks like a different famous person.

seriously. this is not my usual comment stuff, but real.
I woke up one morning to see mother theresa in the morning sunlight and shadow pattern of a pair of rolled up knee socks. everyone else saw it, too, after they laid in exactly the same spot where I was. and now that I think of it, that's probably why I didn't report it to anybody. you know, I don't want everybody and their brother traipsing into my bedroom and laying on my side of the bed to see mother theresa.
unfortunately, it was before I had a digital camera, and I had no film at the time.
but the story did survive. one of amy's friends wrote it up for an english assignment as if it had been her discovery. plagiarist kids.
