The "weirdest" thing I've had happen was that aI was going through a very difficult time in my life during college, and all of a sudden there was a mourning dove outside my window every time I got really upset.

About 2 years ago I passed out cold and was hospitalized with atrial fibrillation. So there I was lying in a hospital bed at 6 a.m. scared s--tless, looking at my erratic heartbeat on the moniter and this big white seagull with a smear of garbage on it's beak comes and sits right outside my window 3' away and just stares at me.

So the first thing that goes through my mind is, "How the hell did I get this crappy spirit guide? What's he going to do, lead me to the great landfill in the sky?"

As it turns out he was a regular visitor that went around at meal times begging for food.

Could've been worse. Could've been a buzzard. I have this fear that I'm going to get to heaven and there's going to be a lengthy application process where I don't have all the information I need (balance on the mortage principle listed seperately from the balance on the mortgage interest, phone number of first employer, etc.)

White seagull. Don't knock it. Sea lore has it that sailors who die at sea go to Davy Jones locker. From there, they are occasionally allowed out, in the form of a seagull, to check things out. The color of the seagull reflects the sailor's character, and only the very best of character can return as pure white seagulls. Do you know anyone with a naval background who died at sea? You might have a protecting spirit. ;-)
