re: Need to Kill Time: What's a story that you've heard that still gives you chills

When I was about three years old, back in the mid eighties, my mom and I were in the parking lot of the old AP in Baker. She was loading the car with the groceries and a car drove up and a man grabbed my arm and tried to drive off. My mom put a death grip on my other arm and wouldn't let go. The tug of war lasted about twenty seconds before the man just grabbed her purse and took off.

Kind of freaks me out to think I was that close to being an amber alert.
