This is crazy..... I really didnt think that there were any other adults who would be afraid of clowns..... one of my coworkers said someone would lose their life if they pranked him using a clown..... so very tempting..... He is deathly afraid I think. Anyway my aunt is terrified of COWS. Which I have never went into a pasture where COWS would hang around long enough to scare me....so I have no idea what her problem is. I have another friend that is afraid of chickens....I know they can chase you, but come on now, you can kick them and they will run off... I know just too many crazy people .

At least I am afraid of something that could kill me. I mean SPIDERS are very dangerous and vicious creatures. They look for ways to catch you off guard and strike when you least expect it. Death to ALL spiders.... they are demons from HELL !!!!![/font:52f90d6950]
