Miracle Dolphins and Grilled Cheese

FlipperGrilled Mary

Yes, apparently the lord works in mysterious ways, creating creatures smart enough to protect humans from a dangerous shark:
A pod of dolphins circled protectively round a group of New Zealand swimmers to fend off an attack by a great white shark...Lifesavers Rob Howes, his 15-year-old daughter Niccy, Karina Cooper and Helen Slade were swimming 100 metres (300 feet) off Ocean Beach near Whangarei on New Zealand's North Island when the dolphins herded them -- apparently to protect them from a shark. "They started to herd us up, they pushed all four of us together by doing tight circles around us," Howes told the New Zealand Press Association.
and creating someone dumb enough to pay $28,000 for a grilled cheese sandwich:
A woman who said her 10-year-old grilled cheese sandwich bore the image of the Virgin Mary will be getting a lot more bread after the item sold for $28,000 on eBay. GoldenPalace.com, an online casino, confirmed that it placed the winning bid, and company executives said they were willing to spend "as much as it took" to own the 10-year-old half-sandwich with a bite out of it.
