I, for one, believe every word of this and am subscribing to **Coryraisa’s** newsletter as we speak.

Uh huh. What _is_ the desirable weight for a 15-years-dead body, these days?

Diana cums to me every night and gives me a hand job. I know this because I set a motion sensing camera out last night. On schedule it caught me becoming aroused…and wham!! I finished. There was noone else in the room. It had to be her.

She also told me that she wished that Dodi had shaven the hair on his back.

It’s been over ten years-have you ever considered obsessing over someone who has died just a bit more recent?

I’m sorry, but if you’re saying that anything except your own imagination is at play here, then you _are_ claiming to be psychic.

How are John Lennon and George Harrison? Are they jamming with Elvis and Jerry Garcia? Is there really a Rock 'n Roll Heaven?

All right. But then, if she didn’t communicate with you, how do you know that:

Did you just gather all of that from her face? What an expressive one it must be to do all of that not-communicating.

Damn, you know, if you think about it, the afterlife must really suck, if you’re still in pain and have all kinds of scars and stuff. I thought that like, Heaven was supposed to be, well, heaven.  
Hmmm…hey, what’s Kurt Cobain doing these days?

That’s what’s so fascinating. Diana’s continued to age, is still in therapy, and had to learn to walk again. She may never really use her right hand again.

There’s some magical realism in this that’s just so tempting to borrow.

What happens when you’ve been in heaven for a couple of hundred years? Are you just completely demented?

Forget a lousy princess!

_Emperor_ Norton visits me. He’s pleased with NAFTA, a fan of Sasha Baron Cohen, and repeatedly suggests I move to place that would let me have a dog.

You’re supposed to get a new perfect body. I’m just hoping we get options and upgrades. I want a perfect Andre the Giant body.

Biggest surprise from the afterlife? Diana has been dating Abraham Lincoln. (He got divorced from Mary in 1957.)

This the part that caught my eye. What regulations stop them from showing seances? Seems like a strange restriction.
