Well, then I don't face my fear of scorpions.

At least this way, I'm greatly reducing the chances of someone getting
stung, which is the *real* fear I have. It's extremely unpleasant to
have your 6-month-old stung by a scorpion!
It probably ain't on the short list of the 6mo's favorite things, either.
Nope. The short list included a couple of funbags. :D
