Exploring the Mystery of "Ghosts" - What Do We Know?

In summary, the conversation revolves around the topic of ghosts and the speaker's experiences with seeing them in their house. The group discusses different theories about the existence of ghosts, including the possibility of them being from a parallel universe or being associated with blood flow in the eyes. There is also a humorous exchange about the ghost potentially checking its email or visiting "dirty" sites on the computer. The conversation ends with a caution not to mention the topic of ghosts to a teacher who lives nearby, as she may take offense due to her Indian heritage.

[sorry if this has been asked before, but this is a question I've been asking people]

Ok, now just about every one at one point has heard about a "ghost". And lately I have been thinking to myself that I have been seeing them around the house, because when i come out of a room, and i pass another room, i see a quick moving shadow like mist, floating at a high speed..and as a lot of people would think, the first thing that comes to their mind is.."Oh my god, my house is fu**ing haunted!" and freak out and the whole nine yards.

Now I have been thinking about this lately, and we bought my house while it was still being built, so that rules out past owners living here, and i don't know much about the land, but it is in Georgia, so Indians might of lived here (lol). But i have been wondering on what ghost really are. Maybe they're just part of an old campfire story that people used to tell, and then people started using it as a explanation for all these strange sights, maybe its just has something to do with the blood flow to our eyes (or something like that). orrrrrrrrrr lol, maybe they are just beings from a parallel universe, some how seeming to get through. I often wonder, if they are part of a parallel universe, if some times me walking up the stairs, and turning on a light is going through to another P.U. and freaking them out as well lol.

But i would like to know what's yalls thoughts are on the subject =]

Yes, it may be checking its e-mail, or perhaps visiting 'dirty' sites. :biggrin:
