user posted image rLooks like Diana Duyser's going to get some really nice bread for her eBay item -- $28,000 for a 10-year-old grilled cheese sandwich half that she believes bears the image of the Virgin Mary. Bidding on the Internet auction house closed Monday night. The winning bidder wasn't disclosed on the Web site, but it was reportedly GoldenPalace.com, an online casino. "Millions of people look at this Virgin Mary grilled cheese sandwich and all of them see the exact same image of it. It's a paranormal phenomenon that you can't overlook," said Goldenpalace.com owner Steve Baker. Photos posted on eBay show what can be viewed as a woman's face emblazoned on the triangular half-sandwich, a bite taken out of one end. GoldenPalace.com executives said they were willing to spend "as much as it took" to own the 10-year-old half sandwich with a bite out of it. In a statement, GoldenPalace.com CEO Richard Rowe said he planned on using the sandwich to raise money for charity "and we hope it will raise people's spirits as well."

The new owners of the sandwich didn't want to risk it getting lost in the mail, so Kerr and Steve Baker, CEO of GoldenPalace's management company, Cyberworld Group, flew to South Florida on Monday to meet Duyser and make arrangements for a sandwich handover. "I would like all people to know that I do believe that this is the Virgin Mary Mother of God," Duyser, a work-from-home jewelry designer, said in the casino's statement.

It's a paranormal phenomenon'''

It's just some person who has drawn mary in it with probably a knife.

I can easily do that to.

Only good thing is they will use it for getting money for a charity.


For the rest there is really nothing special about it.
