If I die now and become a ghost, do I appear to people as I looked at the moment I croaked? I ask because I don't really look my best these days. Beginnings of a beer belly, age spots, jowls, retreating gumline. On the brighter side, my elbows are still nice and tight. I'm hoping maybe I get to watch a video game of my life and choose a ghost avatar before I haunt some house or beer hall. There was a time at age 6 when I looked pretty darn good.
If a watched pot of water never boils, how come it doesn't work the other way? The other day I sat outside in -30 degree weather and watched a pot of water freeze. It looked frozen, anyway. Could have been my eyes that were frozen.
