  Lol, from The Register, of course....
[hr style="width: 100%; height: 2px;"] [h2]Google spots Jesus in Peruvian sand dune[/h2][h3 class="Standfirst"]Or is it Charles Manson?[/h3][div class="Byline"]By [a href="vny!://forms.theregister.co.uk/mail_author/?story_url=/2005/07/15/google_spots_jesus/" title="Send email to the author"]Lester Haines[/a][/div][div class="Date"][small]Published Friday 15th July 2005 11:16 GMT
[/small][/div][strong class="Label"]Black helicopter alert[/b] There's some very good news today for those readers who do not have the good fortune to live in either the UK or the US of A - you now officially exist according to Google UK.[/p] Yup, [a href="vny!://maps.google.co.uk/"]maps.google.co.uk[/a] has now restored those bits of the the globe previously not thought worthy of inclusion in the big map - which was everywhere except Blighty and the States, Canada, Central America, some Caribbean islands and the Irish Republic. There's more on the terrifying conspiracy theory behind this mass erasure in our [a href="vny!://www.theregister.co.uk/2005/04/29/google_bush_map/"]previous report[/a] into the matter.[/p] But before the black helicopters can return to base, we must ask this simple question: Why has Google Maps chosen to remain silent on the small matter of having located [a href="vny!://maps.google.com/maps?ll=-16.337013,-71.959763&spn=0.110893,0.158186&t=k&hl=en"]Jesus Christ[/a] in a Peruvian sand dune?[/p] [a href="vny!://maps.google.com/maps?ll=-16.337013,-71.959763&spn=0.110893,0.158186&t=k&hl=en"][img]vny!://www.theregister.co.uk/2005/07/15/google_jesus.jpg" alt="Jesus or Charles Manson?" title="Jesus or Charles Manson?" height="349" width="500"][/a][/p] We find it impossible to believe that Google didn't spot this ghostly Turin shroudesque image of Our Lord in the South American sands. What are they not telling us?[/p] A quick phone call to [a href="vny!://www.world-mysteries.com/pex_3.htm"]Erich von Däniken[/a] confirmed our initial suspicions that the image was hewn from the sand by an ancient civilisation using hot air balloons and alien laser technology borrowed from the scientists of Atlantis. Either that or someone is projecting a picture of Charles Manson onto the desert from a low Earth orbit, Erich told [cite]El Reg[/cite] before popping out to discover a representation of an extraterrestrial wearing an Apple iPod carved into a stone by Mayan artisans in 500BC.[/p] Whatever the truth, the implications of this discovery are chilling indeed. Sinister things are afoot at Google, make no mistake. ®[/p] [h3]Bootnote[/h3]Muchas gracias to reader Lee Staniforth for his satellite spotting skills.[/p][a href="vny!://www.theregister.co.uk/2005/07/15/google_spots_jesus/"]vny!://www.theregister.co.uk/2005/07/15/google_spots_jesus/[/a]

The real trouble with reality is that there's no background music.

For thou art with me; thy cream and thy sugar they comfort me
Thou preparest a carafe before me in the presence of Juan Valdez
Thou anointest my day with pep; my mug runneth over
Surely richness and taste shall follow me all the days of my life
And I will dwell in the house of coffee forever.

 Oh, but you mustn't see Muhammad!  "They" will kill you!
Thousands of years ago cats were worshipped.  They have not forgotten.

...religion has made some contributions to civilization. It helped in the early days to fix the calendar, and it caused Egyptian priests to chronicle ecplipses with such care that in time they were able to predict them. These two services I am prepared to acknowledge, but I do not know of any others
