Philosophical

That's the name of the book I just finished reading. It's by one of my favorite authors, Robert B. Parker. He created the characters Spenser, Hawk and Susan Silverman (eventually made into the tv show Spenser: For Hire starring the late Robert Urich). It's one of his newer books I don't own yet (I have most of them and at least a third of them in hardback), so this copy is from the library.

I had a bit of a revelation in Philosophy of Mind class; an upper level college course.

Have you ever felt that someone/something was staring at you and watching your every move when you're alone? What about "cold spots" and "hot spots"? Do you ever feel like there's an uncanny presence with you that you cannot explain?
