It's like "the pope in the pizza"


The Rockford Register Star's Web site posted this wire story this morning about claims -- preposterous claims, The Rascal would argue -- that a likeness of Donald E. Stephens, the late mayor of Rosemont, Ill., can be seen in the trunk of a sycamore tree in the Chicago suburb.

(A larger and clearer montage of Stephens and the tree can be seen here.)

This case reminds us of the classic "Saturday Night Live" bit by Don Novello (in the guise of Father Guido Sarducci, shown on left) wherein he tried to "finda the pope in the pizza."

No way does the tree trunk look like that Stephens guy, but it sort of resembles the pope. :)
