    <body><![CDATA[From an e-mail to a friend: <br/>I picked up a book at the library today called <em>Ghosts Among Us</em> by James &quot;I'm In Your Living Room!&quot; Van Praagh. <br/><br/>For some reason, he advises the Dear Reader to consider such mediation tricks as The Cloak of Invisibility and the Rays of Pink Light. <br/><br/>Because, of course, some ghosts are bad. Very bad. And they are easily dissuaded by you chanting, &quot;I'm enveloped in pink light!&quot; to yourself whilst the walls drip blood, the lights flicker.  <br/><br/>Keep in mind that J.V.P. may very well be in your living room at any given moment; he's just sporting his Invisible Cloak and living on your dwindling supplies of macaroni.<br/><br/>***<br/><br/>Reading of JVP's near death experience was kind of a letdown.  I mean, he got food poisoning from unwashed lettuce on a sandwich from the mall (there's a surprise) and then caught a glimpse of the hereafter?!  Come ON!]]></body>
