    I found the artist's website, Jez had done a post on this

    [www.arianapagerussell.com]

    I think that might be what the Baby has. #miraclebaby

    @Ailatan: I remember that post! This definitely could be a hoax, with someone writing the verses on the baby's skin and then claiming a miracle. #miraclebaby

    To me, the rampant increase of meth use seems like it would be more of a factor in crimes committed than binge drinking. #miraclebaby

    I only skimmed the MSNBC article and didn't see any mention of this, but the first thing that jumped to my mind about the Russian miracle baby is that condition where you can write on your skin and it will raise up and be pink (Wikipedia says it's called "dermatographic urticaria"). Is it possible the baby has this and the mother or another caregiver decided to take advantage of it and get some fame? #miraclebaby

    @lyra31: I'm tempted to say "bingo". I remember the documentary about a "miracle giant boy" living somewhere in Southern parts of Russia a few years back - his family was living off of showing him off, basically, and most probably giving him growth hormone as well as deliberately overfeeding him to sustain that livelihood.

    Isn't there a rare disorder such that light touches will cause welts to appear, allowing people to basically "write" on their skin with just a stick or something? #miraclebaby

    I've only learned two things from these kinds of religious appearances over the years:

    Jesus is one ugly mofo, and Mohammed has terrible penmanship. #miraclebaby

    The skeptic in me is reminded of a skin condition that a high school friend of mine had. You could write on his skin with your fingernail, and the message would appear like a raised welt (but not painful) for hours afterward. It makes me wonder if the parents could be doing that. #miraclebaby

    The thought that someone might pay over a million dollars for Sarah Palin's scrawl makes me want to throw up. I wish I could buy it just to smash it to bits with a baseball bat, a la Office Space, but it would also make me throw up to give the money to anyone with a kind word to say about her.
