Jesus doesn't just weep, he steams: a Methuen woman has found a burn resembling Jesus on her iron. Mary Jo Coady feels "spiritually uplifted" by the savior-esque image burned into the bottom of her ironing device; she confirmed the resemblance of Jesus by checking with friends on Facebook, which has been officially been recognized by science as a reliable source. We're gonna go with the iron image looking a little more Mona Lisa than Son of God, but we nevertheless commend Coady for not planning a cross-country RV trip to share the ironed image with others. In a post-Thanksgiving food coma this morning (er, afternoon), Bostonist and friends had the (somewhat dubious) pleasure of watching eccentric escape artist Jonathan Goodwin be burned by a falling iron during an attempt to escape from bedpost constraints (it was an awkward setup). Apparently Jesus was "on his side" (literally)?
