Jon; How about cell phones killing ghosts? Stupid enough?

"Speaking of technology, a British expert on paranormal events, Tony Cornell, reports that cell phones may be killing off the ghosts in England. “Ghost sightings have been consistent for centuries,” he says. “We’d receive reports of two new ghosts a week. But with the introduction of cell phones 15 years ago, ghost sightings began to decline to the point where now we are receiving none.” Hmmm. Hypotheses: One, ghosts love cellular as much as people do, and now they’re too busy to say “boo”; two, people who once were lonely and impressionable are now too busy yapping on their cells to say “eeek”; three, cell phones emit spookicidal radiation into another dimension. Personally, I’m skeptical about this whole news report: I have a cellular phone, and my house is just as full of boos as ever."

I think he did misspell booze.
