What are you switching to? Haven't canceled yet because I need my VPN for testing but need to switch very soon.

Hello from infosec.pub

Why you gotta call me out.

I'm in a safe-ish area and was told 2 claims in 3 years and they wouldn't renew my insurance. Been here over 20 years and had one claim 10 years ago.

Had lightning hit and called the insurance directly, they opened a claim number but we ended up not using it. Meaning they paid $0 because it turned out to be a simple fix, it was just scary in the moment at 3am with water gushing out (not into the house). So we just paid the $300 to fix it and they closed the claim.

Two years after that we called when a tree hit the house, went a different route and called the independent agent first, not the insurance company directly and that's when we learned if we started a claim for the tree damage, they probably wouldn't renew. Ended up being almost $3000 out of pocket so we can keep the house insured and the mortgage company happy.

From experience, we tend to use the same two burners, and one particular one, the most, by far. (Front left for us) After 15 years, the plastic on the underside of the original knob got worn and loose and almost broke. We rotated the burner knobs. The oven knob is doing the same thing, but it'll need to be replaced or repaired. Like someone else said, they aren't usually all metal construction, there's plastic on the inside.

Omg, I forgot this, when one of our girl cats was in her "toddler" years, she would go to the spring coil door stop and take her paw and boinoinoing it, over and over and over on a door nearby but just out of line of sight. If you said her name she'd stop for 30 seconds and start again. Repeat until you got up and paid attention to, petted, held, or fed her.

If I'm reading the hypothetical right, it's saying what if in a year, the numbers were reversed... 323 $hootings with 69 deaths, versus 1 school shooting with 1 death.

Would gun laws change, would tax laws change? Etc etc. Would minimum wage change?

Purely hypothetical of course

Also, he has a lot of kids now... money tied up over inheritance squabbles and civil cases getting redistributed to lawyers and court systems. I imagine more kids will come out of the woodwork too claiming a piece of the inheritance pie

So does banning windows

I have a letter one of my Grandma's friends wrote her after seeing Gone With the Wind. She did the equivalent of "meh" - I was shocked. No idea if this friend was just not impressed with anything or wanted to come across cool. After my shock wore off, I still laugh off and on about.

-- I didn't see the letter until after Grandma died, so I didn't get to ask about the friend. (Grandma was born around 1910)

He knows his presence is the best present

OMG you triggered a memory. 1990 college girls dorm, same setup with the phone numbers. Guy would call and ask us about our fingernails. Eventually we started talking about it and older ones would warn the new ones moving in...
