Sleep Mistake Pancakes

You know, there's actually a way to make mistakes while one is sleeping. "Did you sleep well?" can actually be answered with "No, I made a few mistakes."

Apparently the neckroll that supports my neck while I sleep rolled up until it was just beneath my ears.

I couldn't turn my head yesterday.

Here's something creepy:

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - A controversial television seance airing on Monday will claim it has reached the spirit of John Lennon, but viewers will have to pay $9.95 to find out what the peace-loving Beatle has to say.

Sight unseen, the Lennon effort has been attacked by the late Beatle's friends and fans as a tasteless effort to profit from his assassination 25 years ago. But producers say they are hoping to lure an audience that now loves such prime-time network TV shows as "Ghost Whisperer" and "Medium."

The program features what is described as an Electronic Voice Phenomenon, or EVP, that a psychic on the show claims is the disembodied voice of Lennon speaking at a seance in one of his favorite New York restaurants, La Fortuna.

EVP is based on a belief that spirit voices communicate through radio and TV broadcast signals.

On the television show, filming at La Fortuna suddenly stops and a narrator says something odd has happened. They then claim that a mysterious voice can be heard on the voice feed of one of the psychics.

The producers then call in "EVP specialist" Sandra Belanger to examine the voice and she proclaims it the real deal.

"That's very consistent with a Class A EVP," she said, regarding the level and clarity of the voice. She also says the voice sounds like how Lennon would have talked.

The jury is still out on EVP as far as I am concerned; I mean after all, most people in this world claim to motivated by what they think their invisible friend in the sky tells them to do, and just look at the state the world is in these days. But there is something disconcerting and just plain wrong about trying to pester people that aren't even on this plane of existence.

and NO, of course Yoko Ono never approved this nonsense.
