Sharks are the f'ing coolest!
I've been diving with grey reefs, hammerheads, bulls, lemons, whitetips and nurses. Went on a feeding dive once in the Bahamas, you could hear them crunching the bones in the fish we were feeding them. Crunch, Crunch, Crunch
Other irrelevant shark stories:
On my honeymoon in the USVI my wife and I were snorkeling at the beach in front of our condo. There were probably 12-15 other people in the water around there. My wife was probably 30 or so feet away from me when I came upon a nurse shark laying underneath a coral head. I stood up (in about 4 feet of water) and yelled to my wife, "Hey come check out this shark over here". The scene was like in "Jaws" where the lifegaurd blows the whistle and yells shark and everyone runs screaming hysterically from the water.
Diving in Hawaii, we were at the Molokini crater off of Maui. Molokini Crater is hugely popular with snorkelers and divers. The divemaster is going over the dive profile at tells us of the resident shark "10 O'Clock Charlie" that comes into the crater every morning at around 10. Well sure enough midway through the dive here comes Charlie. Suddenly the number of people in the water decreased by around 95%.
I like sharks.
Rats; now on the other hand, I hate rats.I should probably change my username to IReallyDon'tTeleMuchAnymoreDave.

Speaking of Mountain Lions.....
Looks like one may have taken up residence in Davis...

I have a healthy/completely irrational fear of snakes...poisonous snakes particularly. So much so that it precludes me from going ANYWHERE that the shady little fuckers have even a remote chance of residing.

I've had a lot of contact with moose over the last 30 years in Vt. Close range, long range, passing right by me in the woods. Riding by, skiing by, right outside the window. None of these has phased me. But I FEAR catching one in my headlights. FEAR.

Like Indiana Jones I hate snakes. They scare the hell out of me. I used to have to have my dad guide me through the snake section at the reptile house at the zoo so I could keep my eyes closed when we walked past the snakes.

I like snakes - my dad and I used to catch them when I was a kid and we'd set up terrariums and stuff...
But spiders, centipedes.... yuck. I woke up in the middle of the night when we were camping in Moab last weekend with a spider walking across my face. Ewww..... took me like an hour to fall back asleep because I kept thinking I was feeling spiders everywhere.
What creeps me out the worst: camel spiders. Good god those things are disgusting. They make scorpions look cute.http://www.snopes.com/photos/small/c...ider_small.jpg
Yeah, I'm aware that most of the stories about them are exaggerated, and the picture is at an angle that makes them look bigger than they are, but they're still the most disgusting things I've ever seen. The ones I saw in Saudi Arabia were little (they were like the size of your fist), but still way more disgusting than any normal spider or bug I've ever seen anywhere else. I think the freakiest thing is that they run so fast. You'd walk around at night and see something scurrying around in the sand in the moonlight at the speed that would make it seem like a rodent or something and shine a light on it and it's some super disgusting big bug moving that fast. At least normal spiders are slow...Last edited by altagirl; 10-14-2004 at 04:01 PM.
