Nebraska women with George Washington chicken nugget on ebay - Theology Online

I don't know what to link to, this story is going everywhere

I get a sense of deja vu for some reason, wasn't there something else that went on like this?

And foremost, how do you keep it from drying out to the point where it becomes gross and shriveled. Surely it must be hard to get to retain it's fresh moist and lush kind of shape - maybe she should figure out a way to petrify or stain it with some kind glossy sealant first to keep it from rotting or losing it's color and vigor.

Also there is some very covert symbolism going on here with the packaged sort of commercialized version of George Washington manifesting itself in the processed form of chicken which has been served by a powerful corporation. For my myopia though I cannot quite put my finger on what the crux of that symbolism specifically is.

Neb. woman auctioning George Washington McNugget for Sioux City church

Quote:

No lie, a Dakota City woman said she is selling a McDonald's Chicken McNugget on eBay that she believes looks like President George Washington.

Rebekah Speights said she put the presidential McNugget on eBay Monday as a way to raise money for children at the Sioux City Family Worship Center who will attend a summer camp in Dayton, Iowa, later this year. The church is trying to raise $15,000 to send 50 children to the camp.

By Tuesday evening, the Washington McNugget had one bid for $100.

hmm, maybe somebody will out there pay the full 15,000! I still think they should put some nice gold lacquer on it or sealant or something give a glossy shine.

That does not look like George Washington. It looks more the kid (who was Eric Stoltz - by the way) from "Mask" with Cher and Sam Elliot. How come no one wants to claim that?

I agree. I think the only valid stigmatas are in pancakes.

I say let it get dried out. Maybe then it will resemble some other more famous historical figure. Then it can be resold for even more money.

Can anyone say "Suckers!" ?
