When were you last really scared?We'd been watching the Shining. We were staying in an old church building. In hindsight, taking the shortcut home after midnight, in the mist, through the old graveyard was a bad idea.
I'm not sure what started it, but suddenly all the hairs on my neck had gone up and I was crapping myself. It was almost as bad as when, after a few cups of coffee too many and buzzing on caffeine, I got freaked out by my own reflection in the toilets.
When were you last really scared?

Not ghosty scared, but scared.Flying into Philadelphia, PA, we hit the runway pretty hard. It got nice and quiet then I heard the guy behind me say "we're not down yet!" We had hit hard enough to bounce back into the air for a few seconds.
No sooner had he said that, then the left wheel hits, hard! and we bounce back up to hit hard on the right wheel, bounced again then finally both back wheels at once.
Walking out, I wanted to call the pilot "Captain Kangaroo," but I just wanted out of there.
