[UA] Ritual killing in London

[Hammons, Jade]

	Funny thing is Greg, I agree with you. I sometimes envy his and
another friend of mine's ability to be scared. I often tell them my own
life is too bizarre and my own ponderings so abstract as to make most
things unhappily mundane. I long for those visceral scares and look back
on them with fondness. Though of course at the time... the horror is all
too real to enjoy it.
	My most memorable: I was walking to my car across campus having
worked late in the graphics design lab, 3 or 4am late. Scurrying across
the sidewalk was a tiny ant. In a burst of malice I stomped him. A
nameless dread came over me and I spun around and looked up at the sky
fully expecting a huge foot to capriciously end my existence. It was
true terror.
	
	I don't step on ants anymore.

	But looking back it's a moment I wish I could capture more.
Lightning in a bottle.

Cool.  If I was that squeamish and sensitive, ah, what horror stories I
could write...
