I had my own excitement earlier in the day when I discovered the coffee press I had placed on a white plate left a stain that was no doubt the image of God's embrace of the Virgin Mary at the very moment of the immaculate conception!
It was a remarkable likeness of that event, if you dare to imagine it, and I set that plate aside intending to photograph it, share it here. It occurred to me I might also sell admission tickets to view it with its eventual sale on E-bay or in a Southeby's auction.
Sadly, I got distracted. Forgot the photo and the plate ended up getting washed. And, "Damn!", though I lost what was a potential goldmine, it was a nice reminder nonetheless of what Christmas is supposed to be all about, I guess.

Christmas is all about clean plates??? LOL! Sam is really into the spirit of the traditional "settling in for a long winter's nap".
Sorry about your lost opportunity for fame and fortune. You win some, you lose some.
Gotta get up @ 4 am to take Mr. Ramblings to the airport.
I think Sam was showing the appropriate reaction to a coffe-stained plate. He doesn't care about a lost fortune. Now, I'm wondering what "God's Embrace of the Virgin Mary" immaculata might look like.
Fran: Oooh, 4 a.m. wake-up to catch a plane. Hope all went well. Is he off to visit family?

Ooooh, be creative (and imaginative) as you like. It was very obvious what I was seeing, i.e., a pretty graphic graphic.
ackkkk! a porno plate? oh wait, perhaps that is my interpretation of a holy event. But then, all those supposed virgin mary images just look like elongated triangles with rounded points to me. Interpretation is all in the mind, it seems.
