WASHINGTON – The Virgin Mary on a grilled cheese and the Illinois-shaped corn flake appear to have new competition for webbies' fascination: Dick Cheney's mysterious sunglasses.
An undated photo of the vice president on the White House Web site has caused a stir on the Internet, causing some people to wonder if he's in eyeshot of an unclad female.
The White House says it's just someone holding an innocuous fishing rod (the veep -- allegedly -- is fly fishing in Idaho).

"Clearly the picture shows a hand casting a rod," Cheney spokeswoman Meagan Mitchell said, according to the McClatchy newspapers.

"Naked woman reflected in Dick Cheney's sunglasses."
