Pay at the Pump
Just as an FYI... I received an email from my mom about a new gang initiation and wanted to share it with everyone....
A friend stopped at a pay-at-the-pump gas station to get gas. Once she filled her gas tank and after paying at the pump and starting to leave, the voice of the attendant inside came over the speaker. He told her that something happened with her card and that she needed to come inside to pay. The lady was confused because the transaction showed complete and approved. She relayed that to him and was getting ready to leave but the attendant, once again, urged her to come in to pay or there'd be trouble. She proceeded to go inside and started arguing with the attendant about his threat. He told her to calm down and listen carefully: He said that while she was pumping gas, a guy slipped into the back seat of her car on the other side and the attendant had already called the police. She became frightened and looked out in time to see her car door open and the guy slip out. The report is that the new gang initiation thing is to bring back a woman and/or her car..One way they are doing this is crawling under women's cars while they're pumping gas or at grocery stores in the nighttime The other way is slipping into unattended cars and kidnapping the women. Please pass this on to other women,young and old alike. Be extra careful going to and from your car at night. If at all possible, don't go alone! This is real!!

Here are some stats I found today. You may find them interesting.
On average, 100 people choke to death on ballpoint pens every year.
*during a boring lecture, don't chew on your pen - use gum!
More people are killed annually by donkeys than die in air crashes.
*I guess don't mess with a caged donkey!
13 people are killed every year from falling vending machines.
*if your candy gets stuck, don't shake it - tell the office! :)
The sport that sends the most people to the emergency room every year is ping pong.
*remember, your not playing tennis.
More people are killed each year by bee stings than shark attacks.
*friends don't let friends with bee allergies forget their EPI Pens
