Pepper Spray, anyone?

check out this news story: http://video.nbc4.com/player/?id=274663 (sorry, the add link button isn't working, at least on this mac laptop I borrowed from school. Heck, I can't even figure out how to left click without a mouse) Happened yesterday morning right near where I jog all the time, including the morning before at the exact same time (7:30 am). Luckily I had decided to take a day off! But another woman came forward saying she was almost attacked near the site July 1st. Checked my ipod, and yup, I was out running at the same time that morning. Gee, I must have scared him off with my speedy 10 minute miles. On second thought, I wasn't wearing any make-up, so that could have done it! I went in search of pepper spray yesterday and found some at Gander Mountain. I had been meaning for some time to buy it, mostly due to the fact that I've had some close encounters with scary dogs. I also ordered one of those road id's that you can strap to your ankle. (that way after I get kidnapped he can then steal my identity!) Went out this morning with my cell strapped to my arm instead of my ipod and pepper spray in hand (with the safety off..LOL). Stayed on busy streets. I got hardly 100 feet from my house before a lady walking her dog reminded me that a gunman was on the loose attacking joggers. What a relaxing run... sucks to be a girl!
