Careful what claims you make.

Thieves cut off man's 'holy leg'
Police in southern India are hunting for two men who attacked a Hindu holy man, cut off his right leg and then made off with it.
The 80-year-old holy man, Yanadi Kondaiah, claimed to have healing powers in the leg.
* * *
Police say the reason for the attack could be because Mr Kondaiah told too many people of the alleged magical powers of his right leg.
"This might have motivated some people to take away his leg hoping to benefit from it," a police spokesman said.
Yes, I am a bad person. Because I find it funnier than hell. Remember, all you Woo-merchants, be careful what you claim.

What the Holy Man wished he'd said
"No. I do not have a magic leg, but I can do some magic with it."
Mr. Bo Jangles, dance!
Truth in advertising?
That guy who used to play harmonica for the J. Geils Band better watch out. I think his name was Magic Dick.

I wonder
Will they do what people tried to do with unicorn horns and other portions of mythical and real beasts that are said to have healing power? If so it's probably already on the Chinese black market as either a cure-all or an aphrodisiac. One little pile of powdered holy-man leg will cure you of whatever ails you.
Holy Shit!
Heh. I know that they used to collect the bowel movements of the pope, dry it, and sell it as a magic cure-all . . .

Well Jim...
...guess I'll see you in Hell. That is too funny. Now, do you want to re-think your magical miraculous ability with the xmas lights? Mum's the word my friend!
I wonder how long before the leg shows up on eBay?
