No not one of those ghost writers.. an actual author of the
paranormal. I'm interviewing one Wednesday and am trying to
think of some clever questions besides the boring ones I
already have. Any thoughts?

Joke answers are more than acceptable, btw. :)

ask him if he gets someone else to do the writing for him.

"do you have any concrete proof of the paranormal i could
see?"

I'm reading his book now and I'll be damned if it isn't
funny. Here are the directions to the Senaca Spook Light in
Joplin, Missouri.

...Turn right onto E50, which is Spook Light Road. Park next
to the biggest pile of empty beer cans and wait.

And here is his first tip to hunting ghosts:
1. Take loads and loads of beer. No, no, wait. Scratch that.
No beer, tequila shooters, recreational prescription drugs,
cigarettes, and especially no chewing tobacco - it's nasty.
Any sort of substance that alters your senses can ruin a
good ghost hunt. I hope this clears things up - this was not
rule 1.

Interesting book so far if not slightly juvenille, but hey,
I like beer and ghosts so it has my attention.

"I have seen a ghost. At least, I think it was a ghost. I
was ten years old, and ten-year-olds see a lot of things -
especially in the dark. Things that, when Mom or Dad flip on
the bedroom light, turn out to be lamp silhouettes, Little
League trophies, Satan...the usual."

Lol this guy is on crack.

Ask him why the fuck he thinks it's important to interview
such a person.

Better still, ask yourself the same question, and if you
can't come up with a good reason, call off the "interview."

I think that was on during Saved By The Bell reruns back in
the day so I never saw it, naturally.

ask he/she if they have heard 'ghost writing' by tim hecker.
then proceed to play the song because they have not. then
proceed to play the whole album because it is great.
