A visiting professor at the University of Alabama is giving a seminar on
the supernatural.
To get a feel for his audience, he asks, "How many
people here believe in ghosts?"
About 90 students raise their hands.
"Well, that's a good start. Out of those of you who believe in ghosts,
do any of you think you've ever seen a ghost?"
About 40 students raise
their hands.
"That's really good. I'm glad you take this seriously. Has
anyone here ever talked to a ghost?"
Fifteen students raise their hands.
"That's a great response. Has anyone here ever touched a ghost?"
Three students raise their hands.
"That's fantastic. But let me
ask you one question further: Have any of you ever made love to a ghost?"
One student in the back raises his hand. The professor is astonished. He
takes off his glasses, takes a step back, and says, "Son, all the years I've
been giving this lecture, no one has ever claimed to have slept with a ghost.
You've got to come up here and tell us about your experience."
The
student replies with a nod and begins to make his way up to the podium.
The professor says, "Well, tell us what it's like to have sex with a
Ghost."
The student replies, "Ghosts!? I thought you said 'Goats.'
