Well i love swimming at beaches. I would live near a beach if i could. No shark is going to stop me or it hasnt yet.
I dont have much to do with my Dads side of the family but they always moving and live in rich houses near the beach. I loved staying with them when I was a kid. My cousin was so spoiled. My Auntie, thats my Dads sister and his mum had a jaguar and a porshe and he had been all around the world and to disney land and I lived with my mum and three sisters in an old farm house and she got the rent free because she cooked meals for the shearers and then we moved into housing commission and we never had much toys or clothes. Never joined any clubs like girl guides and when we was little mum used to drink alot and there was alot of parties and mum would be crying and all her stupid bf alchoholic friends.
I just wish my Dad was still alive and wasnt a psycho and acted like everyone else in his family because my mum and dad was married and my mum said they could have been wealthy, like if they hadnt of moved every couple of months and he kept his job.
My mum says nothing about him except she hates him for leaving her on her own with three little girls.
Anyway, that is enough complaining.


that is interesting from the viewpoint that you never actually broached what you wanted to say. i identify much with a post like yours because i also wind up sidetracking for ages until i have no more energy to get back to the point.
maybe your post does have something to do with pics of fears but i did not see it.

Even though I find them interesting and even cool sometimes... I HATE spiders...... the small ones arnt that scary but the big ones...

a small trapdoor or little tarantula that is big enough to send a tingle down the spine is usually more than 5 years old.
after i read that most (survived) hairy spiders (trapdoors etc) live 25 years or more, then i very much decided i could not kill them any more when they are in my house.
i have to put them in a glass which i trap them in and the whole process is spine tingling, but....that little spider is maybe 7 years old, and i am not going to ignorantly halt his life just because i do not find him attractive.

he did not ask to be a spider, and he is innocent in his being.
i am glad i only see about 1 spider per year though.

whatever.
i did not mean to insult you.

I guess I am also afraid of sharks, I have actualy been over simulations in my head over what to do in the situations, I think I would very much like to avoid the teeth, so my stratagies are wither to hit it on the nose which is aparently where a lot of nerves are, or jump in its mouth and hope that I can either freak it out to leave or die quickly. But I generaly dont like swiming out in depths like that, I am not often a water person, I feel kind of exposed and helpless. Gues I can add crocodile aswell, they are stealthy buggers, I remember one time when I whent fishing in the Northen Territory (thats where they made the Crocodile Dundee films) and my dad was makeing me fish in an area that looked like a perfect spot for crocodiles to attack, I was drasticaly searching the many places a croc could come from. My strategy I have come up withfor takeing on large predators is to make myself too much trouble, though I havent realy thought of much to take on a group. And a final note I will add in this "Clever girl".

Oh my, all this shark talk! I never realized just how many people were terrified of them. I had a friend who had a terrible phobia of sharks in middle school. Another one of my friends has a terrible phobia of ladybugs though, so I never thought anything of it. What scares me the most about a shark attack, is the initial. Like just swimming out there and then all the sudden you feel flesh start to come off. *shudders* ick.

i knew for one night a very pretty girl who had a phobia that was paralyzing to her.

it was a phobia of snails. i am too immature and i felt amused in such a strong way inside, that i was unable to suppress my smirk at that revelation.
she was very stoney faced and serious and she was terrified of snails, and i imagined it would be rather easy to flee from a snail that is chasing me, and my smirk became broader, and her frown became more furrowed. i find furrowed frowns amusing as well.

i had to suppress my impending explosive laughter, so i tried to pretend i had something in my throat, and i tried to force a cough as a decoy, but i wound up crying in fits of "private" laughter.
and it was almost fatal to her image of me to see it.

i calmed down after a while and she then went on to say that snails eyes are on stalks and there maybe upwards of 100 snails in a garden with those eyes trained upon her as she walks by. their eyes may all be swaying on their stalks to keep attention on her, and that makes her nervous system crawl.

then i thought if she got a "hat and a cane" , then she could take advantage of such a captive audience, and then i exploded into irrepressible laughter (like a whooping cough), and when i finished laughing and looked back up, she was gone.

i guess this post is all irrelevant because it is not a picture.

At least they arent as bad as leeches, maybe she should get a bunch of blue toungues to follow her around, they apparently love snails.

this would not be good if i was on the top floor of the tallest building in the shot.
i would wonder if the electrical integrity of the lifts may be compromised so i may have to use the stairs after the wave went by.

but a wave like this would be a signature of some impact, and so i think it is not worth worrying about refunds if you are on storey 20 and looking at a problem such as this.

i know it is a shot most would have seen.
just imagine being on the top floor of that tenement building and looking at what was going to happen shortly.
that is a dream i am overjoyed to wake from.
