On The Topic of Ghosts

You know, the topic of ghosts got brought up as topics of ghosts often do. I was reminded of an episode of The Rizzutto Show on the local alternative radio station here, which is quite funny actually. They were of course, talking about ghosts. And it got mentioned that, "Why is it that whenever anyone ever sees a ghost they seem to be from colonial times?" The talkie had a point. I mean, where are the ghosts of people before that? Or even after that? Why is it always some Civil War guy walking around haunting people, or even how come they always seem fully well dressed in colonial attire? Didn't a guy ever die in a pair of pajamas or something? One of the other talkies chimed in and said, "I'll believe ghosts exist when I see a guy in an Addidas shirt with a pair of sneakers on." He had a point too. People die all the time. People have been dying since people have been people. Where are all the other ghosts?

And why would they always have a sheet with hole instead of eyes?

Good news is we don't need neurologists and orthopedic doctors whatever they are called to make us stand straight as ghosts.

It is interesting that that, of all things, became sort of a common description of ghosts. I wonder where that came from actually?

I don't think they have Adidas factory in the ghost world as yet. Maybe rest of the ghosts are work in progress...in due course they will all emerge..

@porwest Looking for real estate for now...then negotiations, registration of that land, then drawing up plans...recruiting people to build, and getting loans for construction...eventually employees capable of cutting the sneakers and bags...long term project...you should know.

That is a good question. I never thought of it before. I have heard of child ghosts but they did not fight in the civil war. Maybe historic figures rate higher in the scheme of things.

@porwest That is possible. Things do happen that we can't explain. I remember that I was sleeping alone. Someone grabbed my shoulder. There was no mistake about it. I felt it and it woke me up. I grabbed a stick and started searching the house but no one was there. The house was still locked and nothing was disturbed except me.

I have no idea where the ghosts are. I thought a few times I saw one but probably my imagination running wild.
