Possum's Thursday Three is about fears and phobias.

There's nothing that rises to a phobia in my makeup. I'm not crazy about heights, I've lost any taste for crowds, and I don't like to wait in line.

So I won't be on a balcony pitching beads at Mardi Gras or waiting in line for four days to lunch at Galatoire's on Friday.

Oh, and I wouldn't bet on it, but I'd like to see the Eagles win. Just rooting for the underdog.
