When I was a kid my grandmother always sang the line "Ghost riders in the sky". I used to look at the sky, thinking I would actually see ghost cowboys on ghost horses, riding as if they were on the ground. Then I changed to think the Ghost Riders were the stars. To this day I still don't know the song or artist, and now, even though I'm 20, when I think of that line, I always look to the sky. I think more out of habit now, than actually looking to see them.
