At a conference on the supernatural, one of the speakers asked, «Who here has ever seen a ghost?» Most of the hands go up. «And how many of you have had some form of interaction with a ghost?» About half the hands stay up. «OK, now how many of you have had physical contact with a ghost?» Three hands stay up; there’s a slight murmur in the crowd. «Gosh, that’s pretty good. OK, have any of you ever, uh, been intimate with a ghost?» One hand stays up. The speaker blinks. «Gosh, sir, are you telling us that you’ve actually had sexual contact with a ghost?» The guy with his hand up suddenly blushes and says, «Oh, I’m sorry, I thought you said «goat’.»
