4 Strange Places That Holy Images Have Appeared

1. Jesus in Jamie Farr's Chest Hair
Post-M*A*S*H. and pre-After M*A*S*H., Jamie Farr and his cohorts partied across America. One morning he awoke from a particularly hard night of drinking and noticed a vague figure etched in his chest. It was the son of God, resplendent in Jamie's curly black locks. The hair grew back within a month and the Holy image faded, but for a month he was the toast of Christiantown. There were rumors that Dom DeLuise had created the image with his electric shaver after Jamie passed out, but Dom denied that rumor to his grave.

2. Buddha in a Bowl of Corn Chowder
Tuesday, November 13, 1997 started like any other day for Smitty Gopherson. He went down to Lou's Diner, had the breakfast special and read the Harperton Gazette, then fell asleep at his booth. He woke promptly at noon, revived by the smell of the piping hot corn chowder brought to him by his waitress Alice. But the corn chowder was different this day, as the visage of the smiling Buddha met him. Smitty quickly whipped out his sketchbook and drew the portly god, then ate the chowder as was his custom. The sketchbook remains in the Harperton Museum and Tire Shop to this very day.

3. Thor at The Apollo Theater
In 1991, Sinbad filled the Apollo Theater like no other performer in its vaunted history. But on July 24, 1991, his performance was upstaged by the greatest Norse god turned comic book hero: Thor. Just as Sinbad began his third encore, his shadow cast on the stage wall by the lights took the form of the hammer-wielding god. Sinbad screamed for the lights to be dimmed, but the image remained behind, mystically burned into the wall for years. It was only when when singer/star Jadakiss refused to go on stage with the image that it was washed off.

4. Tiny Moses on The Shroud of Turin
The Shroud of Turin is most famous for having Jesus on it, but several years back, a more startling discovery was made: the image of a tiny Moses holding a kitten. Only four inches high, the image was never seen as the focus of researchers was always Jesus. But Moses can clearly be seen between the third and fourth folds of the Jesus' robes, holding a tiny Siamese kitten and stroking its head as the cat purrs. Some researchers believe it is not actually Moses, but rather veteran actor Joe Don Baker wearing a monocle.
