Scared to death!

Let's get into something completely different for a change. I want to ask you guys something. Have you ever been in a really dangerous situation and didn’t know whether you would get out of it safely or not? There is a movie out called The Mist by Stephen King that reminded me of a situation like that that I found myself in once. The time was the sixties, I was in the military at Bunker Hill AFB Indiana. I had just met my first wife and we were out riding around one weekend evening with two of her friends. They decided to take a ride through the park, while there we decide to stop and neck for a while. It was a moonlite night and mist was all around. After we were there for a few minutes we heard an unusual sound that seemed to be coming from all around the car! We all were really scared, so everyone held their breath. We stayed really quite to see if we could find out what the noise was. Suddenly in the darkness a group of "bikers" in black leather jackets appeared and surrounded our car! The girls "screamed" as they tried to open the car doors, but they were locked, so they started hitting the car with their fists and some of them struck the car with "clubs", then they tried to smash in the windows! The fellow who was driving the car was so scared that he had a very hard time starting the car, after several tries and with all of us yelling at him to get us the hell out of there, he finally got the car started. All this time the bikers were trying to get our doors open and smash in the windows! As we drove off they gave chase and followed us for a bout a mile before finally giving up. I’ll tell you, I don’t remember being that scared before. I was always told by my mother, that it’s not the dead that you have to worry about, it’s the living! Believe me, no truer words were ever spoken.
