First, I apologize for the crappiness of angelfire. As soon as I have time, I'll put it on a better site.
Mr Card appeared on my pancake this morning. At first, I was skeptical. My wife argued with me that it was actually Colonal Sanders, but once we compared it closely, we both came to the conclusion that this was in fact, our beloved author, making himself manifest on my pancakes. Most people probably wouldn't even know who this is, but as fate would happen to have it, I actually go to this guys website!! It almost makes me feel holy. If you would like to donate money to my holy self, please, contact me. I would love to recieve ANY donation in order to preserve this once in a lifetime miracle in an airtight container, fused in a solid carbonate state.

Even better. With all the OSC bashing due to his comments on Star Trek, you can offer it as an effigy to them. It would be the prize of any Trek convention... Posted by The Rabbit (Member # 671) on :
Problem!! Mr Card does not wear glasses (at least not in the photos I could find), yet the figure on your pancake is clearly wearing glasses.
Could your pancake be trying to reveal to us the Uncle Orson NEEDS glasses? Or perhaps that he wears glasses in private but is too vane to wear them in public? Perhaps now that he has reached an advance age (meaning older than me), he now needs reading glasses?
Or perhaps it is actually Colonel Sanders after all.

In the source pic I got, it was sunglasses.

Nathan, may I ask if this is a response to the newly revived Photoshop Phridays? Very nice work by the way. But for future reference the Vigin Mary always sells much better than a writer. Even if the writer has reached god-like status in the eyes of some of his faithful followers here at Hatrack there just aren't enough of us here to compete with the millions of crazy sons o' biscuits out there willing to pay thousands of dollars for a sandwich with an odd burn mark that might resemble a religious figure. I love crazy people. Especially the ones in my head.

You have no idea how frustrating it is for a guy like me to get my spiritual emanation inside a pancake, when I would far, far rather have the physical emanation of the pancake inside me.
But now and then I have to make the sacrifice, allowing my image to provide my most devoted readers with moments of mealtime nausea.
Posted by T_Smith (Member # 3734) on :
Nausea? No... right after we realized who it was on my pancake, I made more pancakes (I have an unshakable appetite). We think Tony Blair appeared on one of them, but really, who here cares about a Tony Blair pancake?

Oooh, it's an OSC pancake! Can it write as well as the original? Perhaps it has a different artistic talent since it has no hands.

He appeared on my toast. And in my juice. And later, in my tacos. In fact, he appears everywhere I look. Get out of my head, you crazy spirit!

Nate, can I come to New Hampshire and start a shrine in your kitchen now?
Edit: You ATE a Tony Blaire Pancake?! You didn't develope an allergy to liberalism did you? An overdose like that would only be matched by eating a George Bush Pancake.

Sam, you can come to New Hampshire for ANY reason, but be warned, a shrine might get in the way, so I might have to take it down when you aren't looking.

The OSC pancake, now cold, is being hired as a writer for a new Star Trek television series.

Don't you mean new movie?

okay, this had me howling and cackling out loud in my office, so much so that my boss had to ask what the hell I was up to...

Ha ha ha! Glad I looked at this topic... Oh... *wipes tear* I dont know, if someone told me they saw my face on a pancake, I would be rather skeptical, then embaressed, then angry then....well, slightly amused meh!

I've never seen anything interesting in pancakes or even waffles, apart from gustatory interest. But I have seen lots of worms on sidewalks, after they died from trying to cross them in the blazing sunlight. And sometimes they die in interesting patterns that sort of make shapes. Has anyone seen anything interesting in dead sidewalk worm patterns? Just wondering.

Pancakes are better are trapping liquids than sidwalks are. Posted by Antony (Member # 7947) on :
surely that picture isn't genuine? if it is it's quite incredable
Posted by Kama (Member # 3022) on :
of course it is genuine, how can you even doubt that?
Posted by Antony (Member # 7947) on :
well, it seems rather unlikely Posted by Antony (Member # 7947) on :
