From St. Paul To Mrs. Paul - More on the Jesus Fish Stick

News of the Grilled Cheese Virgin Mary last week spurred Fred Whan of Ontario, Canada, to dig into his freezer for what some may believe to be a heavenly work of cod — a burned fish stick resembling Jesus.

The 40-year-old man says he was cooking dinner for his kids and other children he was baby-sitting when the blessed event occurred. "No one wanted them because they were burned," he said. "So I thought I'd better give them to the dogs."

But before he threw the charred cake to the dogs' dish, he took another look.

"I said, 'That looks like a rock singer,' and then my son goes, 'It looks like Jesus,' and I said 'Well, it does, yeah.' "

So he kept this burnt offering as a conversation piece. Now, he's promising to put it on eBay, perhaps as the perfect keepsake for those who admire both St. Paul and Mrs. Paul. Holy tartar sauce sold separately.
