L<\/span>ook, I don’t care who you are, you have to love this story. Saw this a while ago on USAtoday<\/a> and was blown away. It tells the story of an 11-year-old girl who was out walking with her friend at around 3:45pm outside of Phoenix, AZ. She later reported, that a man in a white SUV pulled up to her and her friend and said that she needed to come with him because one of her brothers had been in an accident and her parents had asked him to get her. She asked him for the “Code Word”. But, he didn’t know it and just drove away.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

This “Code Word” was a prearranged agreement her parents had instituted with the little girl in order to determine true “Stranger Danger”. I can’t tell you how happy this story made me. Bravo to the girl and her parents for having the forethought to have done this all along! The local sheriff was contacted by the parents and he was given all of the details of the event. The Sheriff’s Office released all relevant information to the community in order to spread the news about the lurking child abductor and the incredible pre-planning on the part of this family.<\/p>\n

However, I’m left wanting to know more about this story. Did they ever catch this creep? Has he approached other children? Did anyone else see him that day?<\/p>\n

Yeah, all of those questions but my question that is eating at me is completely ridiculous because I’m a simple-minded moron.<\/p>\n

What was the code word?<\/p>\n

Why does that interest me so much? I feel dirty.<\/p>\n
