Talmage: The Classic Rock Music Listener and Liker of Short Hair
Last Friday evening while waiting
for my son Jeff and his buddies (Ben Fletcher and Nick Howell) to arrive from Columbia, Sean and I mentioned
that we had not been on Ghost Radar in a while, so we turned it on and got immediate
hits of words like: music, listen, change, attention, trim and hair among many others. While relaxing and having
our favorite holiday cocktail (vodka and cranberry ginger ale!) we also turned on one of our favorite satellite music channels (839: flashback/new wave) in the
kitchen and out in the living room; the house was festive with music playing, the tree lit-up and holiday candles burning! Sean went upstairs for minute and I noticed
that the music changed in living room to channel 833: classic rock. I just assumed
Sean had changed it. But before he got back down to kitchen, I noticed the music
was back on 839: flashback/new wave, then it switched back and forth another couple of times.
I thought Sean as really messing with me! When he got back to kitchen I asked him about
changing the channel and he said he had not and I just kind of shook my head in amazement (still thinking Sean was messing with me). As we sipped our drinks, the music
changed back to 833: classic rock and this time Sean heard it change. Over the
next few minutes we heard it change a couple of times back and forth between channels.
Sean and both looked at each other and commented that we “must have visitors
tonight!” I then said to Sean I was going to ask “our visitor” to change the music
again as I enter the living room and sure enough, the music changed as soon I entered
the living room. Over the next few minutes the music would switch channels when
Sean or I entered living room. We then asked Ghost Radar who was with us, the
word “Talmage” came up. We told Talmage it was cool that they were with us this
evening, glad they liked music and also glad they got our attention by switching
the music channels! A few minutes later Jeff,
Ben and Nick rolled in….Ghost radar posted “Jeff” just about the time Jeff
arrived. As an FYI, the music on the living room receiver has not switched to
another station again after we told Talmage it was cool to hang out with us…Update and a footnote to our experiences with Talmage....twice now our beard trimmer has been "reset to a setting of 1" neither Sean nor I use a "1" setting. On Saturday before we were all going to Zoo, I was going to just trim the hair on my temples a little and I thought it was on a 4 setting; without looking I started to trim away and to my horror, it was on a 1 setting. I had to shave my whole head to even it out...everyone says they like it short (the shortest I have had it since Kindergarten!). But we did not think anything about the trimmer and the paranormal until this morning when Sean started to trim his beard and was positive it was "number 4 setting". But after getting started trimming his beard he quickly noticed that the trimmer was set back at a "1 setting" again...looks like maybe Talmage likes short hair and beards...This is all pretty crazy when you look at the original Ghost Radar words from Friday evening...
