Last night I was at my brothers house. When I left, I was walking towards my car and noticed a suspicious looking character. He was Caucasian and dressed in a flannel, shirt and smoking a cigarette. I just didn't like the way he was looking around the apartment complex and then he was watching a little too close as I was putting stuff in my car. Unfortunately, New Jersey gun laws do not allow me to carry concealed weapons so if he wanted to rob or kill me he would have had a VERY easy go at it. Maybe,  I could have scraped him with my car key.  I got in my car and pulled away and noticed him looking at my brothers apartment. I called my brother right away. There was no answer, I called again. No answer. He finally called me back and I told him what I saw and he said " Oh yea, that's the cop that lives down stairs!" They just got finished talking. LOL. Moral of the story? I am still looking for one.

Embarrassing, I know. I lived and work in NYC for too long. When someone looks at you too long or gets too close to you, your natural defenses go on high alert. He would be terrible undercover.
