Description: Ghost Story
Paraphrased from the book Mischief, by Ed McBain:

        A man was giving a lecture on supernatural and paranormal phenomena.
At the end of the lecture, he asked the crowd if any of them had ever seen a
ghost.  Hands went up, and he counted.
        "That's about right, I usually get a response of around 50% to that
question.  Now ... how many of you have ever been touched by a ghost?"
        Hands went up again.  "That's about right, too; sixteen or seventeen
precent is what I usually get.  Now ... how many of you have had intercourse
with a ghost?"
        An old man raised his hand.  He looked about ninety years of age.
The lecturer invited him onto the stage, and the old gent doddered to the
the front of the auditorium and laboriously climbed the steps.
        The lecturer said, "Sir, this is really astonishing.  I give these
lectures all over the world, and you're the first person I've met who had
intercourse with a ghost."
        "Oh, excuse me.  I thought you said intercourse with a goat."
