    Cyber Stalking

    Sorry boys - sending scary, vulgar photoshoped images is thretening and it is stalking. And it's damn scary.

    Just becaues it's happening on-line dosen't mean it's happening in some distant place far away from this blogger. The person making this crazed threats (and they are crazy) could be this woman's next door neighbor. You're just assuming (hoping) it's some harmless, random, ticked-off reader.

    When I was a teenager my nextdoor neighbor was murdered by her stalker. This isn't a joke you can just blow off.

    —Anne
