Take 5 minutes to read and BE SAFE!!!

Good advice no matter where you live!


Because of recent abductions

in daylight hours, refresh yourself

with these things to do

in an emergency situation...

This is for you,

and for you to share

with women,

children,

everyone you know.

After reading these 9 crucial tips ,

forward them to someone you care about.

It never hurts to be careful

in this crazy world we live in.


1. Tip from Tae Kwon Do:

The elbow is the strongest point

on your body. If you are close enough to use it, do!


2. Learned from a tourist guide in New Orleans:

If a robber asks for your wallet and/or purse,

DO NOT HAND IT TO HIM!

Toss it away from you....

because chances are that he is more interested

in your wallet and/or purse than you,

and he will go for the wallet/purse.

RUN LIKE MAD IN THE OTHER DIRECTION!


3. If you are ever thrown into the trunk of a car,

kick out the back tail lights and stick your arm out the hole

and start waving like crazy. The driver won't see you,

but everybody else will. This has saved lives.


4. Women have a tendency to get into their cars

after shopping, eating, working, etc, and just sit

doing their checkbook, or making a list, etc.

DON'T DO THIS!

The predator will be watching you, and this

is the perfect opportunity for him to get in

on the passenger side, put a gun to your head,

and tell you where to go.

AS SOON AS YOU GET INTO YOUR

CAR, LOCK THE DOORS AND LEAVE.

If someone is in the car with a gun

to your head DO NOT DRIVE OFF!

Repeat: DO NOT DRIVE OFF!

Instead gun the engine and speed into anything,

wrecking the car. Your air bag will save you.

If the person is in the back seat

they will get the worst of it. As soon as the car crashes,

bail out and run. It is better than having them

find your body in a remote location.


5. A few notes about getting into your car

in a parking lot or parking garage:

A.) Be aware:

look around you, look into your car,

at the passenger side floor ,

and in the back seat.

B.) If you are parked next to a big van,

enter your car from the passenger door.

Most serial killers attack their victims

by pulling them into their vans while the women

are attempting to get into their cars.

C.) Look at the car parked on the driver's side of your vehicle,

and the passenger side. If a male is sitting alone

in the seat nearest your car, you may want to walk back

into the mall, or work, and get a

guard/policeman to walk you back out.

IT IS ALWAYS BETTER TO BE SAFE THAN SORRY.

(And better paranoid than dead.)


6. ALWAYS take the elevator instead of the stairs.

(Stairwells are horrible places to be alone

and the perfect crime spot.

This is especially true at NIGHT!)


7. If the predator has a gun

and you are not under his control,

ALWAYS RUN!

The predator will only hit you (a running target)

4 in 100 times; and even then, it most likely

WILL NOT be a vital organ. RUN! Preferably in a zigzag pattern!


8. As women, we are always trying to be sympathetic.

STOP!!! It may get you raped, or killed.

Ted Bundy, the serial killer, was a good-looking,

well educated man who ALWAYS played

on the sympathies of unsuspecting women.

He walked with a cane, or a limp, and often

asked 'for help' into his vehicle or with his vehicle,

which is when he abducted his next victim.


9. Another Safety Point:

Someone just told me that her friend heard

a crying baby on her porch the night before last,

and she called the police because it was late

and she thought it was weird. The police told her

'Whatever you do, DO NOT open the door!'

The lady then said that it sounded like the baby

had crawled near a window, and she was worried

that it would crawl to the street and get run over.

The policeman said, 'We already have a unit on the way,

so whatever you do, 'DO NOT open the door.'

He told her that they think a serial killer

has a baby's cry recorded and uses it to coax

women out of their homes, thinking that someone

dropped off a baby. He said they have not verified it,

but have had several calls by women saying that

they hear baby's cries outside their doors

when they're home alone at night.

Please pass this on and DO NOT open the door

for a crying baby!

This information should probably be taken seriously

because the 'Crying Baby' theory was mentioned on

America's Most Wanted when they profiled a

serial killer in Louisiana.


I'd like you to forward this to all the women you know.

It may save a life. A candle is not dimmed by lighting another candle.

I was going to post this for ladies only,

but guys, if you love your mothers, wives, sisters, daughters, etc,

you may want to pass it onto them, as well.


Send this to any woman you know that may need

to be reminded the world we live in has a lot of crazies in it

and it's better to be safe than sorry..

Everyone should take 5 minutes to read this.

It may save your life

or a loved one's someday!


On a lighter note, can you imagine I was actually pinched in the derriere on "D'Lesseps" in Port Said??? Old enough to be a grandmother (but I'm not-hehe) with a posterior as wide as...well never mind! I am starting to believe Egyptian men really do like a little "junk in the trunk"!
