: : 1. Have you ever seen a ghost? Details:
: Yes, twice. Once when I was four, I saw my grandfather enter my room without his wheelchair, tell me to be a good boy, and then disappear. It wasn't until the next day when I learned that he had died that night of a heart attack.
: The second time was when I was visiting my grandmother as a teenager. As I was first waking up one morning, I saw in a mirror that hung on the wall in front of my bed a figure wearing the same kind of plaid shirts my grandfather always wore walk across the room. When I was fully awake, the figure vanished.
: : 2. UFO's - extraterrestrials visiting us, or explainable entirely as aircaraft, natural phenomena and observer inebreation?
: They're all hoaxes.
: : 3. What's in Area 51?
: If it exists, then it holds the secrets to humanity's origins that would be dangerous to civilization if they ever got out.
: : 4. Mediums - do they really receive messages from the spirit world, or are they phoneys?
: Some of them are real, but most of them are just fakes.
: : 5. Do you feel that somehow loved ones who have died "watch over" you? Do you talk to them?
: Yes, and no.
: : 6. Re-incarnation - your views on this please.
: I believe in reincarnation, but I believe that it's simply the energy that becomes reincarnated, not the person's mind or personality or whatever.
: : 7. Your favourite supernatural/horror writer
: Stephen King and Neil Gaiman top the list.
: : 8. Your favourite supernatural/horror movie
: Too many to name, but "The Sixth Sense" is really up there.
: : 9. What would scare you most - spending the night in an allegedly haunted house, alone, OR walking through a neighbourhood with a high violent crime rate at night?
: The latter.
: : 10. I went to see a dental surgeon about my wisdom teeth today. He says if I don't have them removed there's a 20% chance that some point in the future food will get trapped and i'll get an infection and be in great pain. BUT if he removes them there's a 5% chance that he'll sever a nerve and my lips will be numb forever. What should I do?
: Get them removed. They'll feel painful and weird for a while, but it's worth it in the long run. I had a friend who didn't get his out and he ended up getting an infection and had to have several of his teeth removed, which wouldn't have been necessary had he gotten his wisdom teeth pulled.
: : Thanks for wasting your time in this way. Have a good day/evening.
: You're welcome.
