Doug,

It happens to me. One kid said "I'm gonna kill you Mr. Bicycle man! I'm gonna kill you". I got the license number. I called police, police called mommy, mommy called me, mommy apologized and said he will NOT do it again.

Other things have happened to me that are similar, BUt they have all been kids under 19 years.

You're not alone with this problem. This may sound strange, what I'm about to say, and it's gonna come out differant than what i mean, but here goes:

I use to take these incidents personal. As if they where out to get me personally. But it makes me feel better that this does not only happen to me. What I mean is: I am not alone with this problem, others share my frustration....it makes me feel better that someone else experiences this and understands. So it's not just ME.

Does that make sense? Calm down, forget about it, try to get the number next time and report it. If you do something, you'll get in trouble also. Don't let 'em ruin your day.

Now if I could only take my own advice.
