Not true."<BR/><BR/>A hundred years ago, or so it seems, since it was before 9/11, an email spun its way through our office, that warned of another gang initiation: a new gang member would be driving around that evening with his headlights off. The first driver to flash their lights at him would be the one he chased down and killed. It took phone calls to several police agencies to calm the anxious women in my office.<BR/><BR/>I tell my son, no matter what the info, look at the source and ask yourself, how would they have that knowledge, and what do they have to gain by passing it around?<BR/><BR/>Gayle Carline (aka GeeCarl)<BR/>http://gaylecarline.blogspot.comGayle Carlinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15783449240138097315noreply@blogger.com
