Maggie’s Powder Valley Warehouse Burned Down

You project the attitude that you assume insurance is going to hassle you. Why?

Maybe because thats what insurance companies do... like 9 out of 10 times.

How many insurance stories have you read where the person was like "oh my fuck they gave me 125% value for my car that was totaled"? Most likely between 0 and 1...

How many insurance stories have you read where the insurance company offered like 50% value of the item and claim market rate, when everybody(including them) knows its complete horse shit. Then you take weeks on end, maybe a lawyer, etc... to get them to come up to a more reasonable number, which is generally probably still low.... My guess is a ton.

I think thats why people are expecting a hassle when it comes to dealing with insurance no matter the product being insured...


My guess is PV, like most everybody if they are honest, was under-insured, but possibly not due to the product they inventoried. Hell its possible somebody wouldnt even SELL them fire insurance and they could be royally fucked... no clue. If they have the policy limits and the live computer inventory of their warehouse it should be a pretty easy settlement. Stuff like the value of the building and other things will be where they possibly get into a tug of war with the insurance.

Vudoo closed the doors…

How about snakes? This guy has been living in our horse barn for about five years now. It was quite small when we first saw it, but it has lived off mice for quite a while.

Standard black rat snake...? Mike, if you live where I think you live, that's pretty far north for them...

Story time, circa early oughts. Neighbor hates snakes. Any snake. But rat snakes eat moles/voles/yard vermin. So when the kids reported a snake on (not-home) Mr. Dave's deck, I went to rescue it.

Rat snake about two feet long lolling on the deck table. I go to grab it. Wife has tagged along and expresses doubt. I grab snake behind its head... gently. Snake lurches forward enough to turn and latch onto my wrist and doesn't let go. Wife turns white and heads for home.

I walked back to the opposite corner of my yard with the snake still firmly attached. Set it down in the grass; it immediately turns loose and snake-ambles away.

I thought about just laying down in the grass and wait for my wife to notice... but discretion reminded me that, once she learned I was really ok, I might not be very shortly thereafter. So I just went inside and put antibiotic ointment on the perfect snake-jaw-outline of little bloody spots.

I worded my email inquiry to be non-bias in regards to the thermal fit, I wanted it to be neutral like I wasn't looking for or against thermal fit. Nearly all of the 'not thermal fit' replies have a sense of negativity towards thermal fit. I wonder why that is?

Little bastards are lucky like them around some days. He ate a ceramic egg, and then probably regurgitated it in the woods. Little fucker could have at least brought it back if he didn’t want it

I catch them and relocate them, we have too many field mice around.

Why can't I get a job....uhhhhhh

I use to tell my wife that on the first day of school with a new set of unknown kids, I could spot the ones that had a jail cell waiting on them. She said I was jaded. She said that for 5 or 6 years until she saw those same kids going to jail.

Ive told a lot of people that I have a good "first impression" mechanism in my body. Im probably proven right about 85-90% of the time. It might take a few years, like your case, to come to fruition, but im rarely wrong.
