I Don't Like Spiders & Snakes!

Does anyone remember that song?  Jim Stafford sang it (thanks Faytal).  For the record, I'm not afraid of either...just thought it was a catchy title.

Friends, what animate and/or inanimate object(s) are you afraid of?

My nephew, Adrian, is deathly afraid of clowns & has never even seen Stephen King's It.  I think It would send that child over the edge.

My nephew, Darnell, as a young kid, was afraid of the intro music to Tales from the Crypt.  On the 1st note, that boy hauled ass!  It was hilarious! 

Playcuzzin has/had a fear of ashes.   Maybe he really has a fear of cremation & just doesn't realize it.  In his defense, he ain't wrapped too tight at times, so I'm really not surprised. 

I watch a lot of Discovery Channel, so alot of marine life scares me.  I love the beach & the ocean, but I will not go into water that is not clear.  

Case in point - I went into the Gulf of Mexico at South Padre Island a few years ago & the water was murky, but I toughed it out....until seaweed floated across my thighs!  I just knew it was a damn jellyfish.  Needless to say, I got the hell outta the Gulf....after I fell forward & ended up with a mouth full of salt water.

By the way, that's a Black Widow Spider above.  Isn't she lovely?
