I vividly remember the Zodiac Killer. He had my sister and me absolutely terrified after he threatened to shoot the tires of a school bus and kill everyone aboard (we were in school at the time). The thing is, the idea that he was all the way across the country in San Francisco for some reason just didn't make it through my skull. I was literally terrified he was going to be shooting the wheels of our school bus.

We were so terrified my mother actually had to lie to us and tell us that the police had killed a man who confessed as he died that he was Zodiac. That's the only thing that would get us to calm down. And it worked.

Sympathize COMPLETELY. I was afraid of watching news because I was a child during the Korean war and was certain that the bombs described were going to fall on our house. Took years to realize that’s why I left the room every time the news came on.

As for blessed mothers, when I dreamed of being chased by a white polar bear, mother brought home a white fur trimmed hat and explained she’d caught the bear, turned it inside out, and had a hat made from the fur. Now all I think is YUCK!
