  Usually you can just bash on a ghost if you have good strength and
a good weapon.  If you don't have good wands, strength, etc. then make
sure you don't get into a deadend passage.  Ghosts are either somewhat
confused (or slow) so you can outrun them.  They also leave their
treasure behind, so you can do an end run, gather it all up, and exit
that level.

  As far as fortune cookies...I never used to get them either.  Then I
stop killing my dog right away.  Does this have something to do with the
"luck" attribute people talk about?  I don't know if it is a valid correlation.
After you eat the fortune cookie a message will appear.

  Note:  I found the amulet on the 26th level under a boulder.  The 26th
level was horrible, one big maze.  What is beyond the 26th level?  More
mazes?  I only found the amulet because I found and quaffed a potion of
object detection.
