Afterlife Central, this is Gabriel speaking, how can I help you?
No, I'm sorry, you can't talk to him. You know the rules. He is dead, passed from this mortal coil 15 years ago. He is not permitted to interact with the living!
I really don't care if you want to fire him, Mr. Steinbrenner, but if you keep calling to speak with Billy, I'll have no choice but to call in a plague of locusts on Yankee Stadium.
You thought I was kidding. Look what happened 3 1/2 years later. Game 2 of the Yankees-Indians playoff series and the whole series itself turned around when a plague of bugs helped Cleveland to a win.
