Local Woman Finds John Q. Image In French Toast

Springfield, MO – Mrs. Ginger Rinkenbaugh received quite a surprise yesterday morning when the unmistakable image of John Q. Hammons appeared on her second slice of French toast. It was not a sign that she takes lightly in the least.
“I had just told my husband, Mortimer, that I was at a loss as to where we going for lunch this week. I’d reached my wits end, and as fate would have it, John Q. appeared to me, with the syrup capturing perfectly his chiseled good looks. My God, that man is handsome. Immediately after breakfast, I told Mortimer to drive us to the nearest statue of John Q. where I set up a small shrine with the toast as the centerpiece. I then rang up the Tower Club and demanded that they book us immediately for lunch.”
When FCN reporters arrived at the statue in question, the syrupy image was nowhere to be found, since the French toast was being consumed by a local homeless man. Asked about the dreamy octogenarian hotel idol being on his meal, he had no comment other than “it tasted damn good.”
Mrs. Rinkenbaugh has also found images of Mother Teresa in her bologna sandwich, Dom DeLuise in her oatmeal and Justin Timberlake on the insert of one of her shoes.
