Techno asked how scary we are... I'm curious as to what scares us?
Seeing how it's halloween, it's about that time of year eh?

As for me I'm not easily frightened... startled yes but only because my hearing impairment makes me more succeptable to those sneaking up behind me... (even with hearing aids).
But as fear goes? Hmm, well as I get older I find less and less things scare me. A guy with a gun? ...nah. A woman with a knife? nah.
:idunno: hard to say exactly what. Confronting various fears over the years (ya ya..it rhymes) makes me hard pressed.
I USED to be scared of big, tall, hairy, bipedal thingys in the deep deep woods... til I realize... hey! I don't live in Washington or Oregon State.. :D
I guess the only time I would feel afraid is going to sleep in a potentially hazardous situation and not hearing anything in time to wake up and DO something about it. :idunno:

Whats yours?
 
Anything bad happening to my husband and children. TW

Flatlander sneaking up behind me with a creepy grin!
 
Drowning in general. Sharks in particular.

I saw jaws at a young and impressionable age. Did you all see the news about the Great White Shark in a Cape Cod estuary last month?

While that is a sceeeery pic :uhohh: , LOL beneath that all dressed in black exterior and weaponry I think shhh actually lies a pretty good guy :uhyeah:
 
tall, beautiful women???

i'm 6'5" and i've never been as scared in my life when i bumped into somebody in a line and i was going to turn and apologize and found myself eye-to-eye with an absolutely gorgeous girl...she had to have been 6'3'' at least...

needless to say i ran and hid in a corner....
 
Good move,sho probably would have broke your heart and then your nuggets.

Ditto that one and I am not too fond of heights either. It is not that I am scared of heights I am just scared of falling from them ;)

she was a very well proportioned young lady...just take an average sized good looking woman and scale up the size a little bit......

so of course i ran like a little girl....

Ahh, but it's not the height nor the fall you should be afraid of... but the sudden stop at the end. At which point won't matter much anyway. Oddly enough it doesn't matter how high either.
I knew of a scout-master who fell just six feet in a cave and died. He was not wearing a helmet.
