1. Looks more like Darwin.

2. Einstein. Or Mark Twain.

   Actually, it’s pareidolia.

3. That beard is definitely Darwin. Pareidolla has no beard at all.

4. My chem lab partner at Michigan had a roommate who found Jesus in a bandaid box.

5. Kid’s got 8-bit itis. That’s Jumpman.

6. The newscaster is why I don’t watch TV anymore.

7. At least for the kids’ sake it wasn’t M*** – you know, the other prophet, PBUH.

   That was my first thought, too. How do we know it WASN’T Muhammed?

   Then again, the whole “PBUH” thing still makes me giggle. All of these people who speak Arabic and demand respect for their Muslim faith, using an ENGLISH abbreviation. At least Catholics still use the original Latin when they make abbreviations (INRI, etc).
