Shook me all night long
This early morning, I awoke to a vibrating bed, and it didn't even cost me a quarter. No, I wasn't at a cheap motel, but rudely awaken at 4:30 in the morning in the midst of a real live, crevice making, earth splitting, earthquake! Imagine my surprise to see the walls shaking like Jerry Lee Lewis while trying to get out of bed walking like Jerry Lewis. I originally thought that such occurrences were reserved for those on the west coast. My to my dismay, my world was turning. Now as I brace for the aftershocks, I'm reminded of a time when things were so much simpler, and you could count on things being there when you wake up. Instead, I can't sleep because I keep thinking my toothbrush is bounding to the toilet during the next wave of tremors. What am I going to do!

I have found that shaking walls and vibrating beds are typically caused by the presence of super-natural spirits. It's not a matter of what are you going to do; it's a matter of who you gonna call!
This obviously begs the question on whether you truly believe in the supernatural. While I, of the educated sort, am not naturally inclined to believe in what's not logical. I, however, am reminded, after watching a few episodes of ghost hunters on cable am not a super believer. How else could you explain the chair caught on camera sliding across the locked room in the eerie and deserted lighthouse?
I'm positive that I want not to be a negative person but not to the point that I don't, in a positive manner, point out those double negatives that do not clearly state what otherwise might be not so unclear.
By the way, I didn't quite get that last comment. Are you sure that you're the Stay Puft Marshmallow man? You sound more like Mr. Spock to me.
Well, you sound like Mr. Spook to me.
Don't be such a Kirk.
Your fired
