I always very carefully eat those big orange popsicles, because when I get toward the end and the stick starts to show, I'm always expecting someone to shove me in the back of the head and put my eye out on it.Frying bacon freaks me out. The way it pops on the stove. I'm afraid it will scald me. For that matter, anything that pops and fizzles. Electric candles, old hotel vacancy signs, those, too.Benign things that I used to be scared of, but have grown out of: Stairs. I used to go up them on all fours and down them clinging desperately to the handrail. If there wasn't one, I would scoot down on my butt.Trains. Steam trains, specifically. I don't think I've ever seen one, but I read a story about a stray dog that got run over by one.Oh, and also, weird things remind me of the Holocaust and that creeps me out. Like that opening shot in West Side Story where it shows New York, and Yankee Stadium, etc, and then pans over to Harlem, where there are no trees or green things anywhere. I remember I went to a Holocaust museum exhibit once, and they had set up typical Jewish homes. They had menorahs in the windows, lit with those Damn! Electric! Candles! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!! That's why I'm scared of them!</blockquote>
