[Charlie in Dayton]

This time, the pan it was cooked in (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=19270&item=5574030 908&rd=1&ssPageName=WDVW) is up for sale...

...and at the time of this posting, the high bid was $6100...

Who's the Baby Girl behind the pan? :lol:

[beskeptical]

Who's the Baby Girl behind the pan? :lol:I want to know who it is that has made a $6,000 bid.

I must have something around here with a face on it.

[Candy]

I want to know if I can sell myself on Ebay as a religious figure? I have that freaky Jesus hair style that is portrayed in paintings. Often strangers touch my hair without asking me. :o

Nah, although it would be nice, you can't sell people on eBay. ;)

Remember the cartoon bit where someone gets smacked in the face with a skillet, and the frying pan just molds itself to said poor shlub's face?

Well, if y'all can guarantee I'll get $6k for it...

I could sell my hair, though. I'm thinking of cutting 6-8 inches off. :-k

[edit - I'd need an agent.]

When in your life did you ever think you would see these words put together in this order?

Frank Zappa comes to mind.

I often find myself thinking that I must have something worthless in this house that would sell for thousands of dollars if I could just come up with the right marketing scheme. Alas, my sense of honesty would probably get in the way... :-?

Ah yes, as opposed to all those cheap imitation virgin mary grilled cheese sandwich holy pans. Good thing the distinction was made...

Got a mirror?

Yeah, that's right up there with "THE CHROME PLATED MEGAPHONE OF DESTINY"! (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B0000009RX/qid=1114536322/sr=8-1/ref=pd_csp_1/103-7263025-4645462?v=glance&s=music&n=507846) :D

A semantics question:

If you manage to raise the funds and buy that world domination doomsday device, and thus become the world dominator, does that mean Rachel is the dominatrix? :D

[Humphrey]

I would be more inclinde to use the 4th grade elementry teacher of world domination. But yah your will work to. :-P

[Superluminal]

Did you see the news the other day about the water stained crack under an over pass in Chicago? Looks like the virgin Mary to many. Looks like bigfoot to me. :o

Candy, I don't think it's you hair theyr'e trying to touch. 8)

[Lance]

The winning bid was $8,100.

[Andromeda321]

What I find most amusing is the Golden Palace Casino which bought the grilled cheese sandwich appears in the history. They tried to get it thirty seconds before end of the bidding for $8000 only to be beaten by someone else!

[jofg]

This is really, truely, sad.....

[mopc]

What was the original Holy Grilled Cheese Sandwich? (jeez I have a lot of time to spare if I actually manage to care, how sad)

[Morrolan]

so, who made this pan 'Official'? :-s

[Lianachan]

Anybody stupid enough to spend $1,000's on this bloody deserves to, IMHO.

[Frog march]

next she'll sell the cooker that the pan was on when the "event" occured..

Jonathan Swift wrote a book all about this many years ago.

Let's see, what was it called? Uh....

Oh yeah...

Imagine this: The pan is heat warped in such a way that it will reliably turn out grilled cheese virgins. I see a serious marketing opportunity for whomever bought the pan (even if a little airbursh work is needed). It wouldn't do to flood the market with icons though. Also, it's a bit like whiskey (and virgins). They have to be properly aged before you can sell them.

it's not just your's. I have the same opinion.

Actually, my name sake is very appropriate in this case. He did coin the word yahoo (http://www.gulliver.cc/gulliver2.htm), which seems appropriate.

Candy, you don't need to sell yourself as a religious figure. We will all continue to worship you from a far. :wink: :D

Glad to know some folks still like me after recent events. :D

Candy, I don't think it's you hair theyr'e trying to touch.
I never thought about that. :lol:

[Superluminal]

I have a grilled cheese with the BA on one side and To Seek on the other, any takers?

I didn't think this was worth a new thread...

The Virgin Mary was a snowman?
Then again, this guy's from Eugene. That just might explain an enhanced ability to see weird stuff that's not there.

[mike alexander]

Sounds like something you would read about in 'Cosmopolitan'.

The 'virgin mary pretzel': Love secrets from the convent.

[The Supreme Canuck]

I wonder... could you get a bag of, say, chips, take one out, and sell it on eBay claiming it looks like the Virgin Mary, even if it doesn't? Sounds like a growth industry to me.

[mike alexander]

Or a tube of Pringles, claiming they're clones.

[ravens_cry]

My first thought was it looked like the and symbol "&" then it looked like the number eight on drugs, the I thought it resembled a cursive capital S. The I squinted, tilted my head, and concluded it looked kind..sorta..like.. a henry moore sculpture of the holy happy couple, or any mum in a 60's dress with her kid for that matter. And yes, I wear glasses.

[The Supreme Canuck]

You joke, but I'm being serious.

[Trebuchet]

Actually the pretzel looks at least as much like the Virgin Mary as the cheese sandwich. The sandwich always looks more like Madonna than The Madonna.

[Maksutov]

That pretzel looks like it was the product of an industrial accident. Perhaps OSHA should investigate?

BTW, it's going for over $10K now. See earlier posts for Barnum references.

[ravens_cry]

I hope the person who buys it, eats it. And then tells everybody about it.:razz:

[Swift]

You know, if you look at the topology of the pretzel, it is holy (holey). :D

For some reason, this post reminded me of this story (http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/23236696/).

Whoops!

[KaiYeves]

Holy Cheese!
(Somebody had to say it)

[sarongsong]

Apropos of nothing---last night on TV, Barbara Walters was recalling her long-ago exclusive 3 hour interview with Fidel Castro who'd just taken the reigns of power. At its 1:30 AM conclusion, he took her into the adjoining kitchen and personally cooked them both up....grilled cheese sandwiches!

[fotobits]

From the linked article

"Virgin Mary pretzel bidding at $10,950 on eBay, and climbing"

All I can say is "I see stupid people."

[mugaliens]

I found an image of the virgin Mary in my stucco ceiling. I would if my landlord would mind me selling a chunk of it on eBay?
