OK then...
dizzying unbounded heights (for instance, window washer or construction worker on a skyscraper) and deep water are at the top of my list, flying on a airplane never ever bothered me at all.
Not irrational anymore, but I don't really like most dogs very much (bitten by a german shepard as a kid).

spiders (well, most insects atually) tsunamis (not so irrational anymore!) deep water dan rather axe murderers
No idea who Dan is, but the rest sound pretty rational to me!
dan rather used to be the anchor of the CBS evening news until he had to resign after reporting on george bush's air national guard service using forged documents.
he always looks mean and angry on the telly. jennings (ABC--now deceased) and brokaw (NBC) were much better.
Being holed up in a supermarket with a Farm record being played over the instore PA against my will.

Thought it might be "Kenneth, What's the frequency!!??!!"

Remember you're not paranoid if they are after you. ;)
the few roaches i have seen and screamed at i think are after the cats.
I am irrationally scared stupid of the following:
--heights. --spiders. --caterpillars. --a good majority of insects. --complete and total darkness. --total silence. --failure. --death.
*and before y'all start, yes, i know it's bound to happen to all of us at some point down the road, but i truly am afraid of death, and i'm even more scared stupid of dying. the fear jumps up 100% when i'm at a funeral!*

Ah, yes, I think Jonathan Charles is the BBC's equivalent!
Earthquakes (I'm OK with small ones----just absolutely afraid of a huge one with lots of damage, like the one in the Osaka region back in 1995, or Tokyo circa the 1920s.....I'm lucky to have never encountered a huge one, though, living in Japan.)
Ants, spiders, etc etc
Volcano eruptions
Fire

i'm not as frightened of dan rather as i used to be, though. on david letterman's first show back since 9/11, he had dan rather as a guest. halfway through talking about what had happened and why, the man burst into tears and they went to commercial break. perhaps he is human, after all (just barely).

normal 20 year old worries... you'll get over it soon enough.
Heights or standing close to a ledge, I can picture myself flying over the edge.
Bridges (I live by an interstate that collapsed last summer)
Calling people on the phone, can't even order a pizza without freaking out.
