Cheetos Jesus!


A High Ridge, Missouri woman says she has found Jesus in a bag of Cheetos. Kelly Ramey says, "I think I found Jesus on a Cheeto as funny as that sounds."

She bought a bag of Cheetos at a West County convenience store. Inside the bag she felt something unusual.

"I looked at that and I though oh my that looks like Jesus on the cross it was just like wow," she says.

Family and friends agree with her. Her daughter says, "I thought it was pretty cool." But Kelly Ramey's friend, Sue Edelman, sees something different, "I looked again and I thought a horse head."

Kelly says her husband has a special name for it. "He calls him cheesus."

The pastor of Kirkwood United Methodist Church does not see anything theologically special about the Cheeto but thinks some good could come from it. Pastor David Bennett says "If people can find Jesus, somehow, in each of us like she's found in this object,that would be a wonderful thing."

Kelly doesn't plan to sell the Cheeto and will keep it in a safe deposit box.

Mr. T Snickers TV Commercial

MR. T is in trouble for shooting Snicker bars out of a gun at a gay, British speed-walker. Yeah, you're probably going to need me to explain this a little better.

Mr. T was doing a British TV commercial for Snickers. And it's a commercial that had to be YANKED after gay rights groups complained.

The ad features Mr. T manning a machine gun mounted to the back of a pickup truck, firing Snicker bars at an effeminate-looking speed-walker, while telling him, quote, "It's time to run like a REAL MAN."

While the speed-walker is never identified as gay, advocacy groups said they felt he was purposely exhibiting stereotypically gay behavior . . . and, of course, being made fun of for it. So the company pulled the ad. No word yet from Mr. T.

Here's the other ad in the series.

A GUY TOOK OUT AN AD IN THE NEWSPAPER TO ANNOUNCE HIS WEDDING WAS OFF


What's the WORST thing you did to get back at an ex after a breakup?

Well on July 9th, a guy named Paul Dunkel from Mount Juliet, Tennessee, took out an ad in the newspaper to announce his wedding to a woman named Tammy Lapoint was OFF.

In the ad, Paul (--who refers to himself as "Pauly Bear", and to Tammy as "Snoogums") wrote, quote, "I am so happy to inform you that the engagement is off. Please return all gifts and inform others as well.

"Everyone was right. What I thought was a dream in reality was a nightmare. I am so sorry, family and friends, to waste your time. At least I found out before I said 'I do'."

In response, Tammy's now filed harassment charges and a civil lawsuit against Paul and the "Chronicle of Mount Juliet" . . . which is the newspaper that ran the ad.
And in a bizarre turn of events, Tammy now says she and Paul were NEVER engaged . . . and she's afraid he's crazy for thinking they were. This could get ugly.

THE IRANIAN GOVERNMENT PUT ON A FASHION SHOW . . . BUT ALL THE MODELS WERE COMPLETELY COVERED UP

I'm thrilled to announce that this week, the Iranian government threw a FASHION SHOW called "The Women of My Homeland" . . . in order to show that Iranian women can look stylish and hot . . . even when they're completely covered up.

This is great the women are all wearing these huge, billowy burkhas which cover everything but their faces and hands. You can't even tell if they have decent bodies. It's really pretty funny.

THE BRITISH ARMY IS TRAINING DOGS TO PARACHUTE OUT OF PLANES


Usually, it takes a whole lot to get me excited about something . . . but THIS is pretty sweet.

Recently, officials in the British military announced they've started training German Shepherds to parachute out of airplanes at 25,000 feet . . . in order to do reconnaissance work for special forces assault teams.

According to the British military, the dogs will be strapped to parachuting soldiers, wearing their own oxygen masks, and outfitted with tiny cameras on their heads, which beam live feeds back to troops.

So what's the point of this?


Well, according to military officials, dogs have FOUR advantages over humans in a war zone.


#1.) Dogs arouse less suspicion from the enemy.

#2.) They can squeeze into spaces that are too tight for humans.

#3.) They can sniff out hidden explosives.

#4.) And they aren't human. If a dog dies, it's less of a loss than if a human soldier is killed (sorry, but it's true).

Jib Jab - Time for Some Campaignin'

ANDY DICK HAS BEEN ARRESTED - NICE MUGSHOT!


Andy Dick or The Joker...you make the call!

Just when you think ANDY DICK had fallen as far as he could, he goes and does something like this:

Andy was arrested early yesterday morning at a Buffalo Wild Wings in Murietta, California . . . after he allegedly pulled down the tank top and bra of a 17-year-old girl, exposing her breasts.

Police arrived at the restaurant at around 1:00 A.M., after receiving a complaint about a man urinating outside.

When they got there, witnesses told them that Andy . . . who's 42 . . . had approached the victim and her friend, before groping the victim and pulling her top down.

By the time police arrived, Andy's friends were trying to take him away in a truck . . . but the cops stopped them. It should not surprise you that police say Andy was, quote, "extremely intoxicated."

Oh . . . and Andy also had marijuana in his pockets . . . plus a Xanax pill he didn't have a prescription for.

Andy was booked on felony charges of sexual battery, possession of a controlled substance, possession of marijuana and public intoxication. He was released later that morning on $5,000 bail.

I WON THE 4TH OF JULY NEIGHBORHOOD GRILL THROWDOWN!

It was a great 4th of July weekend for me! I went to a great neighborhood party with a great group of friends, drank a little, ate a LOT, shot off some fireworks and WON THE NEIGHBORHOOD GRILL THROW DOWN. Thanks to the Bowens for a GREAT party.


Steve "The Grand Champion" King with the judges...The Woods Family.

Here's the winning dish...Surf and Turf Kabobs.

WANNA MAKE IT? HERE'S THE SECRET RECIPE.

16 Large sea scallops
1/2 lb. top round steak, cut into 16 ( 1-1/4" ) cubes
16 large shrimp, peeled and deveined
16 large button mushrooms
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup dark corn syrup ( such as Karo® Syrup)
1/2 cup lemon juice
1/3 cup vegetable oil
3 T. prepared yellow mustard
3 T. minced garlic
1 tsp. ginger
1/2 tsp. pepper
8 ripe, but firm, cherry tomatoes
Preparation - Place the steak cubes, shrimp, scallops and mushrooms in a gallon size zip top bag. In a bowl, whisk the soy sauce, corn syrup, lemon juice, vegetable oil, mustard, minced garlic, ginger and pepper together. Pour half of the mixture in the bag. (Reserve the remaining half for basting.) Seal the bag, place it in the refrigerator, and marinate for at least 4 hours or overnight. Drain and discard the used marinade. On each of 8 long skewers, thread 1 steak cube, 1 mushroom, 1 shrimp, and 1 scallop; repeat. Place the kabobs on a grill, 6" above hot coals. Grill for about 10 minutes, or to desired doneness, turning and basting frequently. When the kabobs are nearly done, during about the last 2 minutes of grill time, place 1 cherry tomato on each skewer.
