The Poltergeist

Last night I was in the bedroom when: Click...click...The lights in the living room went on.

"Dear, did you do that?" I called to my husband.
"Do what?" he said from the computer room.
I explained, and he pointed out that he was on the other side of the house from the switch.

Click...click...The lights went off.

"Did you see that?" I shouted.
"See what?"

Click...click...Click... The lights started flickering on and off. My husband came out and checked all the bulbs and switches. Everything looked fine. He went back to his computer work. Click...click...

I was starting to get freaked. "Maybe it's a short! You don't suppose somebody's outside playing a joke, do you? I sure hope this doesn't go on all night, or we'll NEVER get to sleep!"

"No, no one's outside playing a joke," said my loving husband.

Click...click...On, off...

My husband came into the room and stood there with an evil grin spreading over his face.
"INSIDE, maybe."
The clicking had stopped. His grin widened.

"I'm doing it from the computer."

(Good thing one of us knows CPR!)
