Acrophobia

St James' Spire by flickr user Cuth

Brett: Have you ever climbed to the top of a church spire?

Lori: No way!  I'm a little bitty scaredy pants about falling from high places.

Brett: Well, I wouldn't want to make you uncomfortable.  Can you stand atop an ox, or does even that height scare you?

Lori: I suppose that depends on the ox.  Is it large, is it tame?  If not I could get stressed.  And stress can cause zits.

Brett: If you bop a zit with a hammer, do you think it would go back into the skin?

Lori: Seems like that would hurt just a tad?

Brett: Act your age and don't complain about minor pains.

Lori: It's a hammer, fool!  No matter your age... oh, it's gonna hurt.
