There are way better insects to be afraid of than grasshoppers, which don't bite and are actually sort of cool looking in a bent sort of way.

I am afraid of wasps, bats, big dogs, and talking in front of crowds.

I'm also afraid -- or maybe "apprehensive" would be a better word -- of leaving my theatre in the care of anyone but myself, a fact which tends to drive my poor wife crazy at times.

"I am afraid of Mark Gulbrandsen's service van, which contains all the usual ton of service crap plus 200 different platter motors, 40 matched pairs of mirrors for different lamphouses, Norelco lamp tables & gates, and a full machine shop."

I am afraid that Joe Redifer is really William Baldwin, as he is the most evil of all Baldwins.

I used to be afraid of being in an airplane wreck that was not my fault.

But after all the shit I've been through these last dozen years, I, like Jeremy, am afraid of nothing. [evil]

I'm afraid of Water Towers - really.

Lighting

Throwing up - really, haven't done it since I was 5 or 6 because I don't let myself. Which is also why I don't drink much. [Smile]

I'm just weird.

I'm afraid of quarter-ton beehives and kids with rocks.

Watertowers: Sometimes I will look at a water tower and try to imagine that all of the steel suddenly disappeared and for a brief moment a huge spheroid or ellipsoid of water was just hanging in mid-air and then came crashing down.

Hahaha!! Steve, that got a guffaw out of me for some reason! [Big Grin]

What gives me the willies is being stuck in traffic on the GW Bridge in my 18-wheeler, and feeling the roadway bounce up and down on the suspension cables. Wheeee!

Unfortunately, with recent increase in terrorism alerts, I am afraid to be "stuck" on a major bridge or going slowly through an underwater tunnel. [Frown]

(I hope someone is occasionally checking what's inside some of those 18-wheelers and panel trucks) [Eek!] I assume truckers are keeping on eye out for "strangers" to the profession.

I feel the best advice today it "get to know your neighbor", whether it's who's at the truck stop, sitting next to you in the airport lounge, or trying to buy ammonium nitrate fertilizer. Just think if those flying schools had all reported their suspicions earlier, as the one in Minnesota did when Zacarias Moussaoui tried to take flying lessons.

That thought crosses my mind everyday. I am actually glad that I have to go through the police truck checks. They're really bearing down on the little 6-wheeler/moving-van type trucks, too.

Next week will be especially tense, with the GOP convention in town and all...
