Now that we're getting close to the holidays, Thanksgiving, Christmas, right around the corner. Please take a moment to read these safety tips from a close friend of mine who works in Security at one of the local malls. He asked me to pass it on.

car

into their

and

BE

> 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!

he

Be Smart, Safe, and have a nice Holiday in the coming weeks ahead.
