From this ebay auction: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=19270&item=5536456858&rd=1THIS IS A TRUE STORY!!!! Three days ago I was preparing a baloney sandwich and wondering if the Virgin Mary might appear to me on it. I laid down a slice of baloney, and as I was reaching for another slice of bread to top it off I was suddenly aware that the entire sandwich was bathed in light. I am not sure how much time passed, but the next thing I knew, an image of our beloved president was staring right at me from the slice of baloney!!
I fell to my knees and thanked God for this miracle. I then quickly grabbed my digital camera and took a picture. Lucky for me I did because, unlike the eternal "Virgin Mary Grilled Cheese", the slice of baloney immediately began to rot. In fact, within minutes it was covered with mold and the smell became so putrid and foul that I had to take it out back and bury it.
Subsequent sandwiches failed to produce another apparition of George W. However, the evidence of this incredible miracle lives on in my picture, and you can own one if you are the winning bidder of this auction. You will receive a color ink jet copy of the actual picture that recorded this blessed event. It will be enlarged as close as possible to an 8.5X11 and will be printed on photo quality glossy film.
In addition to the photo, the winning bidder will also receive the plate the sandwich was on, as well as the one and only original wrapper that encased this incredible piece of baloney!
Along with the “Virgin Mary Grilled Cheese” miracle, this is sure to go down in the anuls of history as one of the most amazing unexplained events of our time! Don’t miss out on owning a piece of history in the making!
God Bless America!

UPDATE: I just wanted to let everyone know that the sandwich I buried last week has disappeared!! Evidently, it happened sometime during the night. I went out back this morning and all I saw was an empty hole in the ground with some crumbs in it. At first I thought it might have been the dogs. But my neighbor reported that just before dawn she saw several mysterious looking men in dark suits roaming around my yard with flashlights looking for something. One was carrying a box. After apparently finding what they were looking for, she said they got into a dark car and sped away. I am not sure what to think. But if anyone sees a rotten baloney sandwich with an image of George W. Bush on it, please contact me.

A: Obviously, this person is just jealous because "he" appeared to me instead of them.
