You can submit nominations for Great Moments in Journalism here.

Today's Moment comes from North Carolina's Salisbury Post, and, were we able, we would nominate it solely for its headline: "Man who could take warts off has lived in 43 different houses." The piece does exactly what it says on the tin: It's about a man who can cure warts by touch who has moved around quite a bit. It's a rich tapestry, but we're going to choose this section wherein the wart whisperer recounts a successful healing:

"My wife's sister got her hand caught in a mangler and burned four fingers off. She just had a stub of a hand. "And it had warts on it. "But she said, 'You can't take off warts,' and I said, 'Margaret, you've got to believe this,' and I touched her hand, and I said, 'No, look at it. Keep on looking at it, three or four times a day,' and in three or four days it was gone. "I didn't make a practice of advertising it. I had just come to the conclusion one day that I could do that."

The next time someone tells you Flannery O'Connor was too gothic and grotesque to be realistic, you just point them here, okay?
