Pumping Gas Alert

IMPORTANT PLEASE READ
  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!!
  

 The message:
   1. ALWAYS lock your car doors, even if you're gone for just a second!
   2. Check underneath your car when approaching it for reentry, and check in the back before getting in.
   3. Always be aware of your surroundings and of other individuals in your general vicinity, particularly at night!
   

 Send this to everyone so your friends can take precaution.
   AND GUYS...YOU TELL ANY WOMEN YOU KNOW ABOUT THIS Thanks.

The Westing Game

Was it the Judge in the house with a gavel? 
Or was it Otis in the front yard with the hammer? 
Or was it Theo with his darling looks aimed at his young stalker? 

The Westing Game, written by Ellen Raskin in 1979 and since then has left its readers scratching their heads trying to figure the best who-done-it for children!

Mr. Westing has passed away and left his million dollar estate to his sixteen heirs, wait, sixteen?, who seem to have no relation to each other by blood, by work, but maybe by bruised shins. The sixteen heirs have been paired together to solve the riddles left behind by Westing, with the winner the sole benefactor of a large share of the estate. Soon, it's tenant verses tenant, best friends against each other, siblings against siblings... you get the drift. So, who will be the one who wins it all?

Will it be, the doorman who waits pationtly for you to enter the building, then enters himself?
Will it be the family that owns the restaurant at the top of the building?
Or will it be the momma's girl, who always does as she's told?
Only you can solve the mystery, hopefully before anyone else is killed!

No Rules White Pumps!

White Jacket, Yellow Scarf, B/w polka dotted tank, blue jeans, white pumps
Oh look! A rare picture of me! Eek! 
As you can tell it was a gorgeous day out and I went for a hike... in heels! I would recommend it, it was actually fun! 
 I didn't know what to do with that yellow scarf until I did laundry and it ended up next to a polka dotted tank top and *idea!* I wore it all together! I went out with a few friends before hand and had to wear the white jacket. I'm not sure if you can see my awesome white pumps but I've gotten into wearing them everywhere since I can't wear them to work; they're too high!
