Ready to start shopping for everyone's

Christmas gifts after Thanksgiving? If so, beware that robbers are going

Christmas shopping too. And they may have you on their Christmas list!

According to FBI statistics, every 23 seconds there is a motor vehicle

theft. And every 59 seconds someone is robbed. Don't let yourself become

a victim statistic! Here's some street savvy wisdom you can use to outsmart

the bad guy and enjoy holiday shopping:

1. Make sure you shop with a partner; there's

strength in numbers.

2. Park close to the store entrance in

a well lit area.

3. If possible have an employee or security

walk you to your car.

4. Carry pepper spray, and learn how to

accurately spray it.

5. Always look under your car and in it

for a hidden robber before getting in.

6. Carry credit cards, drivers license

and other valuables on your person instead of in your purse.

7. To avoid injury from a purse-snatcher,

do not wrap the purse strap around your shoulder or neck.

Mike Jezek, a concerned Martial Artist

from Houston, TX has put together a booklet jam-packed with gems of life-saving

street wisdom. The booklet is called "Life-Saving Street Wisdom." Unfortunately,

life-saving street wisdom isn't taught in schools or universities like

it should be. And because of that most people are sitting ducks when criminals

do their dirty work. We must educate our families on the how to's of avoiding

and dealing with potentially dangerous people. That's why you must learn

street safety.

I want everyone to realize that we can't

ignore the reality that dangerous people prey on the rest of us. We must

be prepared to deal with them. Using preventative medicine we can stop

the bad guys could in their tracks. For the inside track on how to protect

your family this holiday season, you, need to get "Life-Saving Street Wisdom."

Just send $5 to M. Jezek, 7538 Root Rd., Spring, TX 77389 for this must-have

booklet.

"Life Saving Street Wisdom" walks you step-by-step

in dealing with protecting yourself from: home intruders, purse-snatchers,

rape, car theft, armed robbery, and much, much more. This is valuable information,

you, must get now to protect yourself.
