It must've been when he crapped on the floor....

Hahahaha...that is too funny.

Okay...but how come you are so close to the edge of the circle, Stacey? I mean, shouldn't you be spang in the middle? :D
elSicomoro • Jan 18, 2005 7:29 am

Iben Browning tried to scare people 14 years ago...he died shortly after his prediction failed to come true. :)

Can you really take data collated by a "Dr. Nuttli" with any seriousness?

Notice how nice and red-dot free Pennsylvania is? It looks like the Keystone State will stay pretty quiet.

No, Rich...we get hurricanes instead.

Also the occasional tornado ... couple of years ago the swath of devesation through Limerick managed to miss the nuke plant, but hit a home, killing an infant.

We get a feelable quake or two a year here. I tend to sleep through them.

*thread recapture alert*

WTF is all of this?? You'll all be happy to know that happy has been pooping outside like a good boy since we took him off canned food, and he is slowly moving into the center of the circle of trust, which by the way is why I'm not smack in the middle- that was Happy's spot before he got kicked out.
Elspode • Jan 18, 2005 11:56 pm
What is it about canned food, in particular, that causes Happy to defecate indoors, do you suppose?
Elspode • Jan 18, 2005 11:57 pm
BTW...no matter how big the eventual New Madrid fault quake is, there will *still* be no tsunami here in KC.

FWIW, I have earthquake insurance. I'm no fool.

Neither is your insurance agent ... but he thinks you are.
staceyv • Jan 19, 2005 8:13 am
that canned food shoots right through his system. :turd: It must be a combination of high water content and the fact that he eats way bigger meals on canned. If I just leave out dry food, he eats a few mouthfuls every few hours, but with canned, he can't let it sit there, so he gulps it all down. I don't have time to feed him more frequently than twice a day...It's okay, the dry food helps scrape tartar off of his teeth, and his breath doesn't stink so bad...Now, I have him on that "Chicken Soup for the Dog Lover's Soul" dry dog food. What a stupid name, but the ingredient list looks healthier than any prepackaged human food I've ever seen... I'm known for my extensive knowledge on dog food and nutrition, I wrote an article for a breeder...If anyone wants to know all about doggie food, let me know, I'll send you a copy of my article...
Now, if I could only find a subject that I'm interested in that I could actually profit from...

I think you have to possess a certain disdain for humanity in order to go into the insurance field in the first place, don't you? ;)

You could write a short story about a lady in a red dress who gets toasted, goes karaoke singing, then ends up letting her husband take risque photos of her afterward. :thumbsup:

Write what you know, I always say! :D

Speaking as someone that works in the field, yes. :)

syc-
what work in the field do you do? agent, adjuster, underwriter?
Elspode • Jan 20, 2005 4:18 pm
I think he runs a little protection racket on the East side. One of those, "If youze don't wants to has a accident, you gots 'ta pay yo' premium" type of deals. :D

My company offers (among other things) PMI. My department sets up and maintains client information. My actual job involves auditing the work of our set up team and finding client information that couldn't be obtained by them (I have a lot of resources as well as access to a pay site). Lazy set up people, stoopid underwriters and shady clients irritate the fuck out of me. And my favorite color is green, and I like puppy dogs, and...:)
