Fwd:Survival tips

[Guest guest]

Hi one and all,

This email was forwarded to me in October by my brother and again in November

by my sister. I had not read one quite like this before so decided to pass along

this " The life you save might be your own " survival tips. It is especially

important to be reminded of things like this with the hustle and bustle of the

holidays upon us, when we are so busy we may forget saftey rules. There are a

couple here I had never heard before.

I almost dropped off the face of the earth but not quite. I am on my second

round of antibiotics in 6 weeks and each time I have to stop the Kineret and

then wait for it to kick back in again. In the mean time, I only get further and

further behind in life, my house, and anything else I once thought was so

important. I don't think I have read mail or even been up to it in over a month.

Today I ventured far enough to check for family mail and now I am sending a

quick note to you all, my second " family " .

Be safe, be happy, be well or at least as healthy as you can be. Hello to all

newbies. Missing you all to the rest of you. =) (you know who you are)

Sad we live in such a world, but especially if you are a woman, these could

save your life. Or if there's a woman you love, these should probably be

shared.

Safety tips for Women

We can now add to the list of victims the retired 77 yr. old TCU professor

from Ft Worth whose body was found last week in Oklahoma--and the 11 yr. old in

Sarasota, FL. Because of these recent abductions in daylight hours, refresh

yourself of these things to do in an emergency situation...This is for you, and

for you to share with your wife, your 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 this 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....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.

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 zig -zag 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.

************* Here it is *******

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, 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 e-mail

should probably be taken seriously because the Crying Baby theory was mentioned

on America's Most Wanted this past Saturday when they profiled the 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 send this to the

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 that the world we

live in has a lot of crazies in it and it's better to be safe than sorry.
