    Gak, WHAT are you dressing up as? Or was that a trick question?

    It will be revealed in time and you will understand when the time is right.

    Just got back from taking the kids trick or treating and from taking dad trick or drinking.

  24. I see there was a paranormal thread below.

    I've had a couple of experiences with ghosts. One involved a house where my sister-out-law lived -- a run-down old mansion built in the 1830s out in the middle of bum-fuck Georgia.

    The sitting room faced out onto a beautiful staircase. Sitting on the couch early one morning I looked up and saw a woman in a beautiful 1870s era blue dress coming down the stairs. She paused on the landing with her hand on a finial on the rail and looked right into my eyes.

    Then she disappeared.

    I still get chills thinking about it.

  33. Hahahaha DEZ, I wasn't expecting THAT!

    ReplyDelete
  34. For real Bambi.

    Another time was when I was staying at a B&B in Rome, Georgia.

    My wife and I were there with our oldest son. He was about 18 months old -- we had gone up to visit a friend who was teaching at a college up there. There was a crib in the room at the foot of our bed. I woke up in the middle of the night saw a girl who looked maybe about 15 or 16 in a night dress standing at the end of the crib. She was holding on to the edge and then stood up on her tip-toes and peer into the crib at our son. When I tried to speak to her she looked at me and then disappeared.

    Its a good thing I have 3 hearts.
    Cause I just had one blowout.

  37. DEZ - I want a hug too.

    btw snowcrash - here's another clue. My character begins and ends with an "a."

    ReplyDelete
  38. Lucius, that is positively chilling. Did your wife happen to get a look at her too, or just you?

    ReplyDelete
  42. I'm trying to guess what pumpkingak's character is. I thought it might be Anastasia but then I looked at the other clue and now I'm stumped.

    ReplyDelete
  43. The first was when I was three years old.

    I had a little brother. A few days after my birthday, but was hydrocephalic. He never came home. He lived for three months. On the night he died I was the first to know. I was laying in my bed and awoke to see a luminous spirit pass through the wall next to my bed. It paused for a moment -- I remember asking him to stay for a while and play with me. He looked at me and then floated past my bed, out the door, and across the hall to my parents room. I got up and saw him pause and hover over my parents bed for a few moments before passing out through the wall next to our mom's side of the bed.

    It's been nearly 45 years, but I remember it as if it were yesterday. And I know I wasn't just dreaming.

    Wait 'til you see my costume.

    And snowcrash - another clue - I chew gum, you know, the sexy way.

    ReplyDelete
  45. Bambi -- I was the only one who saw her.

    I've noticed something over the years. There are some people who can see ghosts; most people can't. A good friend of mine (who's had the same experience) thinks there is something about the phenemonon -- only the very observant can see. Moreover, ghosts seem to be very selective about who can see them.

    ReplyDelete
  46. I know a couple of people who thought they saw someone who just died but I've never seen anything like that. Were you frightened, Lucius?

    ReplyDelete
  48. I was very young and very confused. I knew everyone in the house was very upset, but I really didn't know why.

    What I remember is not being afraid, but being sad that he wouldn't stay.

  53. Another clue - you would have to be a Soprano's fan to add them all up - my boyfriend gave me a bar to run.

    ReplyDelete
  54. OH!! I know who you are! Your Christopher's girl!

  55. Starts and ends with an A.
    Chews gum the sexy way.
    Well so far that rules out Helen Thomas and Michelle Obama.

    * Jake McIntyre at DailyKos- Republican Party now "a wild-eyed, exclusionist, birther religio-beast."
    * Hullabaloo - Watch for the return of the "radical, paranoid right wingers."

    The story telling of David Chase was brilliant. He decided to show her killing to us as it was happening to her. It wasn't originally set up that way in the script.

    ReplyDelete
  81. Bambi-it all happened very quickly, I wrote about it a bit at that other blog when it happened. My son went limp, eyes rolling and foaming at the mouth, choking etc...and as we were calling 911 I was trying to clear his airway and in the midst of it I clearly remember the horror of thinking that G-d decided that he had lent me my son for enough time-and then I felt this chill, my whole body tensed and I felt him, the Angel of Death, right in my living room, this presence. In retrospect, it's not surprising to me because my Zaidy used to argue with the Angel of Death all the time ("no I'm not going yet" as he had his daily schnapps. He wanted to reach 100 but died at 96.

  82. It was horrible when she was crawling on the ground. Just awful. You could almost feel her desperation, and the cold. Just AWFUL.

    But the Angel of Death, I think I kicked his sorry ass out of my house. But it really freaked me out. This was on a Shabbat and we were in hospital till Sunday.

  120. I had a lot of fun with halloween costumes in college.

    Freshman year I was the White Rabbit. I had a full rabbit costume and had a little sandwich board that said "one generation got old, one generation got sold, this generation has got no destination to hold." On the otherside it said "Feed your head." I also had a pillow that I'd decorated with psychodelic pictures of the hookah-smoking caterpiller that I referred to as my "Surrealistic Pillow."

    Junior year I did the grim reaper thing. It was a horribly intense costume -- black robe, black hood, a pendant with a real dog skull around my neck. I spent most of the night going up to random people and pointing at them and then silently walking away.

    Of course I was doing tons of acid as well which helped, sort of.
