Good for her... most felons miss a still target 40% of the time... Running in the zig zag is exactly what I saw on one of those shows about crime prevention and stuff!  Way to go!

be well,

I was in a situation once, when I was alone in a bookstore as a young girl.  A man came up behind me and started touching me... very inappropriately.  I was struck completely numb.  I could not move.  Never in my life did I ever think of something like that happening to me.  It scares me even now, because I have two young daughters and I've tried to teach them how to be safe... yell, scream, throw yourself around and attract attention...  And yet, I was taught that, too.

This woman was truly blessed.  What a miracle story.

Man, I don't know what I would do in a circumstance like that, but hope I would have the presence of mind and instincts she had.
