Right after paraskavedekatriaphobia on the "The Phobia List" http://www.phobialist.com/ is "Parthenophobia- Fear of virgins or young girls". Now, what kind of fear is THAT??? But then there's "Atomosophobia- Fear of atomic explosions." I can identify with that. They make me a bit nervous. -ol' 2long

Good things are supposed to happen to us on Friday the 13th according to H's grandmother. H proposed to me on Friday the 13th & she said it reverses the luck - from bad to good. I guess that's why DDay was on the 20th instead of the 13th <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" />

Heh heh - the joy of being in a different time zone. It's Saturday the 14th here so I know I have survived another Friday 13th.
Didn't even notice it was one to tell you truth <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" />
2long I wonder what form that fear of virgins takes. I mean do you break out in a cold sweat or what.....

I forgot that it was today, so I guess not.
So that's one phobia I don't have.

It seems YOU have a liking for your very own sesquipedalian communication style.
