Is anyone else saddened by the state of our society that we have to have a rep from the insurance company at a regional umpires meeting. I imagine he spent more than 5 minutes talking, and that is 5 minutes plus of instructional time taken up that in years past was unnecessary.

Sorry, Rant off.

Better an insurance rep than legal counsel.

Not by much, though.

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!

I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.

At another clinic we had an IRS lady.. and I'd say her Q&A generated the most interest of the whole thing.

Last time I checked my bankroll,
It was gettin' thin
Sometimes it seems like the bottom
Is the only place I've been
I Chased a rainbow down a one-way street... dead end
And all my friends turned out to be insurance salesmen

But fortunately I have the key to escape reality
And you may see me tonight with an illegal smile
It don't cost very much, but it lasts a long while
Won't you please tell the man I didn't kill anyone
No I'm just tryin' to have me some fun
