A different kind of P.O.D.
How about "Psychotically Over-Devotional?"
ROME (Reuters) - Thousands of Italians have flocked to a small town outside Naples armed with mobile phones in the hopes of filming a statue of the Virgin Mary that residents say has miraculously moved her legs.
Parishioners at St. Peter's church in Acerra said they had witnessed the plaster statue's legs turn flesh colored and move "as though she were walking toward us." One man told reporters last week that he had filmed the "miracle" on his mobile phone.
Mama-Lu sniffed this one out immediately: "Don't Mary statues usually have really long robes covering the whole legs?"
