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?

bah!!i felt the fear when i was pulled over for speeding in a company car
i was doing 108kph in a 70 zone when i see this undercover cop car flash and motion for me to pull over
the company car was my means of earning money, and to get a ticket would mean instant dismissal - the result would mean i'd be sacked from a crap job and into dole territory
i got out of the car and the copper did his usual spiel - do you know how fast you were going blah blah blah.. i didn't say all that much, except for "i wasn't going that fast" and "i will be much more careful in future"
he walked over to the other officer to write out the ticket and i thought my life was over.. and then he said "mate, don't worry about it" and came and gave me a lecture instead and told me that he's done me a huge favour and to be much more careful in future
i got back in the car, heart racing a mile a minute, and screamed about what i'd just gotten away with.. no fine or demerit points or anything! and i didn't have to suck his wang to get let off either!! bonus bonus!!
