Employer of the Dead

Fake psychic (redundant term?) Jim Callahan (pictured here auditioning for the Days of Our Lives opening credits), the self-proclaimed medium who was given a rounding shakedown by both Criss Angel and the voting public on NBC's Phenomenon, now has an exciting employment opportunity for the recently deceased via his website. Those wishing to work with him once they've kicked the bucket may submit an application. The first deceased person who can manifest himself on stage with Callahan as a three dimensional ghost will receive a million dollars in compensation, with future compensation arrangements available. All others will receive $25 per show. Of course, the obvious question here is what does a dead person need with a million dollars, though I hear heaven is expensive as hell. I suppose the money could be given to the dead person's family, but really how much is too much to ask for allowing Jim Callahan to use your loved one's name and life details to pretend he can communicate with the deceased? Thanks to the JREF's Swift newsletter for pointing this story out. Read all about it here.
