If you go here you can read the story:
Holy pancakes! Virgin Mary seen on griddle - Weird news- msnbc.com

Under a picture on the web page is this:

Mexican wrestlers Renegado and Mr. Tempest look at an image of what they believe is "Our Lady of Guadalupe" on a griddle at Las Palmas restaurant in Calexico, Calif.

What I'd like to know is: Why do they always see the Virgin Mary

Here Virgin Mary' on US motorway wall BBC NEWS | Americas | 'Virgin Mary' on US motorway wall And the caption next to a picture of the VM is:
[SIZE=2]Hundreds have flocked to a motorway underpass in the US city of Chicago to view a stain on a concrete wall many say is an image of the Virgin Mary

And here she is trying to steal land from the Government:

[/SIZE]Virgin Mary Seen in State Paperwork


Virgin Mary Seen in State Paperwork - The New York Times

What is it with Mary? She shows up in restrooms (no kidding) and in many other places. Several years ago some people saw her image on the floor of a restroom.

Why don't they ever see the apostle Paul, or Peter or Jesus?

One time, listening to the harlem boy's choir I heard Jesus.

Another time, when my sweet bay magnolia bloomed, I smelled Jesus.

I don't see the problem with using all the senses.

But it is, I believe, only "real" for the individual experiencing it.

That's exactly what happened when it was claimed that the Virgin Mary was seen on a burnt piece of toast. It ended up being a different Mary. Mary Pickford.

I have pictures to prove it. Google images of Mary+toast and "Mary Pickford" - it's uncanny.
