Or cities. Or crowds, or standing in line, or mountains, or corn fields. Pretty good list. I could second all of those. Why you afraid of mountains and cornfields?

There are many things to logically "respect" and be cautious of because of the harm they can do you. To me, "fear" is that step beyond logic, a visceral and uncontrollable reaction which is logically out of balance with the scale or probability of the thing triggering it. One of the few things I truly fear is spiders. Oddly enough, one ran out onto my desk as I said that. Now the SOB is approximately 0.0001 inch thick, give or take. Another is drowning. Both are rooted in childhood trauma. Even though I can go back to a specific incident initiating each logically, I can't take the "zing" out of them. Tom

Spending the night on the ground in African lion country! Its funny you mention that. Of all the stories of lions in camp at night i dont ever remember reading of them tearing through a tent and getting someone, or even an early morning camp cook. RC, you need to watch that movie “The Ghost in the Darkness”

You suckers are afraid of Trump and the Truth, leroy. Either can destroy everything you stand for. Thats why the msm has gone hysterical over Trump/Putin.
Your leaders know Putin has the goods on you. Youre greatest fears have come true. He has given Trump the info from the DNC server. We have the server. Trump has been playing with Hillary and Zero as a cat does a mouse- before it kills it.
Thats why your hero is at home-in Kenya.

I don’t like heights either, worked on lots of skyscrapers, no walls, all our pipe is close to the outside of buildings or the elevator shafts. Always on ladders, scared me all the time. We landed our pipe and equipment on a platform held in place by screwjacks. I wouldn’t do that again.
