    I grew up in and lived most of my life in Southern California.
    It is never really dark there. At night there is still plenty of light. It never bothered me to walk outside at night.

    I now live in Western Pennsylvania. My house is situated in a private spot pretty much surrounded by woods. I cannot bring myself to walk too far from the lights in front of the house at night.

    I am not afraid of the "darkness" really. In the house it does not bother me. Outside, approaching the woods at night (even with another person walking alongside) bothers me tremendously.
    Especially if I hear noises.

    I beleive it is the result of too many horror movies at too young an age.

    No, it's becuse there's Amish in those woods. Everyone in Pennsylvania knows that. How does that saying go? "Never go into the wood at night lest the Amish get ye"?

    Didn't you get your brochure when you moved in?

    That's great...HA! The Amish Driveby. A buggy whizzed by approaching speeds of 6 to 8 miles per hour. I felt what seemed like a punch to the back of my head...someone had WHIPPED corncob at my skull.

    As I lay laughing in the middle of the road, the last thing I remember was a gaggle of inbred Amish women tearing at my clothes....

    ...Oh! the hilarity.

    The answer to today's repuzzlement:

    Why were the inbred Amish women tearing at my clothes?

    Answer: They were after my genes.

    Have you ever noticed how conversations drift seemingly aimlessly from subject to subject?

    Do the Amish use corn cobs to wipe their ass? My Wisconsin freind swears they do.
