155. I am mostly skeptical but one weird experience
Edited on Wed Dec-01-04 08:27 PM by Liberalynn
I have never seen a ghost with my own eyes.

But I did go to a reading once by a medium similar to John Edwards (the one with the TV show not the VP candidate, LOL). The odd thing is I had never met this woman before in my life and I was totally skeptical and just going out of curiosity because a friend had told us about this woman. She came out with the nickname this mean kindergarten teacher told the rest of the class to call me once.I mean this was totally out of the blue. The medium just asked who was called that when they were little. The friend by the way who told me about the medium didn't know about the nickname.

The medium also asked me if I had tripped over a rug earlier that day and said some four letter words. I said yes and she said your father, aunts, and uncles heard you and they told you to watch your language. Then she said that they told me just kidding. She also went onto to tell me about this odd nervous habit my grandmother had of folding paper or Kleenex into little squares when she was nervous. She said my grandmother was there in the room as was my Dad, My Uncle and my Aunt. Man that freaked me out. I know there probably was a way she figured that stuff out but I don't see how. I mean it wasn't like those kind of shows where they ask is there anybody with a K and then they just keep guessing. This medium came right out with the information. There were specific names and instances and she wasn't prompting us to give her hints either.

Reading the posts about John Edwards the medium above, I just wanted to add too that no one came around and asked us questions in advance including other members of the audience.I sat with my sister and we were just talking about going shopping the next day. So unless it was mind reading I don't know how to explain it. I also wasn't thinking about my grandmother or the aunt she said she was talking to. I was thinking that nothing was going to happen, we wouldn't get read because we weren't plants, or that if by some weird chance it could, I'd want to talk to my Dad.


By the way is there anyone here named Steve, who is 44, likes going to dog shows, and antique car shows, and is amicably divorced?

Just asking.

Still mostly a skeptic but who knows. As Socrates said the wisest man is one who admits he knows nothing.
