Weekend Edition: Pope’s Image Appears On California Beach
REDONDO BEACH – In what many Southern Californians are calling a divine miracle and others are calling a bunch of bunk, John Paul II’s visage allegedly formed in the sand overnight. Scientists were at a loss to explain how it happened.
Spectators gawk at what they say resembles John Paul II’s countenance, miraculously revealed along the Pacific Coast. Skeptics call it “a once-in-a-million fluke of nature.
“It just totally blew us away,” said surfer Jeff Amberg, who was on his way to surf when he joined a small crowd of stunned onlookers. “The guy really looked like a real dude — right there in the sand!!”
