Put him on Springer and let two rednecks fight over the "ghost" he contacts. :rolleyes:

After my sister was murdered, we had more than enough "psychics" wanting to help us solve the case. When you are greiving like that, you will do whatever it takes, and you can't help but believe that your loved one will try to contact you.

"Psychics" are a bunch of f-in money sucking liars looking to cash in on someone during their most desperate moment.

Undertakers provide a useful service once they've fleeced you and sold you a bunch of useless ones.

yikes seak. sorry to hear that. terrible stuff.

as far as j edwards- you can talk to a friggin rock, but i won't talk back. he can talk to the dead all day long, but they aren't listening, and they aren't talking back.
