    Restorers of an 18th century wooden statue of Jesus Christ have reportedly found a calligraphed note that a priest hid in the Messiah's rear end. The note dates back to 1777 and is signed by Joaquin Minguez, priest of the cathedral of Burgo de Osma at the time, the statue's restorers claim. It reportedly discusses popular Spanish pastimes, the local village's economy, political and religious matters, famous people, and other topics.
