Let My People Show


So today we find out from the NBC affiliate in the San Francisco Bay area that there's a guy in El Dorado Hills, CA who saw the image of Jesus on a cooked shrimp tail. Jesus seems to be popping up all over the place.

In the mountains of southern Mexico, locals claim to have seen an image of Jesus on a rock. He's also appeared on a piece of sheet metal at a hardware store, on a fish bone in Oklahoma, on a some guy's plaster wall inside a shower, and two sisters saw his image on wall in the kitchen of their childhood home while they were in the midst of renovations.

So how come we Heebs never see images of Moses on a matzo ball or Abraham on a bagel? And what about Sarah, Leah and Rachael? Shouldn't we see at least one of them on a piece of halvah or in a bowl of stewed prunes?

And I thought we were the Chosen People.

I don't think that's Jesus. I think he looks more like the Unabomber.

Or Jerry Garcia (before he went gray). Or the Lubavitcher Rebbe (before he went gray).

....are you sure thats a shrimp tail?....it sure looks like something else.....Jesus sure picks interesting places to "land"....I agree with Liz, why is he and Mary the only faces that show up?
