Saturday 9: I Had An Accident

1. Have you ever been in a serious accident? If not, how about any accident?

Yes, I was in one serious accident. I was struck by an SUV while on foot. I suspect that qualifies for anyone. I'm lucky to be alive and I know it.

2. Have you ever been ticketed for an accident and if so did you pay it or fight it?

No, I have never been ticketed for an accident and if I was and I was guilty, I would not fight it.

3. What kind of insurance do you have and would you recommend it to your friends?

I have State Farm. I don't know if I would recommend any of them... they are all bad news in this state. I have great insurance because I am: 1. 40 years old 2. have no accidents in my history 3. have no points or tickets 4. I'm CEVO certified.

4. Did the accident cause you to change the way you drive?

It made me a very nervous driver and passenger. I hate what that person took away from me.

5. Did you need a rental car? If so, did you get a better car or worse one than you had? If not, what did you do for transportation?

I did need a rental car and had one for a week or two. I had a loaner car for about two years from a friend who has a dealership. Then I got my car.

6. Have any of the mishaps you've experienced with your vehicles given you impressions of the quality or safety of certain vehicles?

Some vehicles are safer than others. All SUVs are dangerous and most SUV drivers are too stupid to be allowed to live. Actually most drivers in general are too stupid for words.

7. Have you had to hire an attorney due to an accident?

No.

8. When in an accident were you alone, with someone, with your children, etc. Did that make a difference in the situation?

I was not with any family, however, I was with a really adorable and wonderful police officer who is my hero. Did it make a difference? It did to me. I was scared shitless after the accident and that man was so helpful and so on the ball.

9. Finally, if you could drive any vehicle you wanted, what would it be?

Mine. I love my car. It is cool, it is sexy and it is very safe.

Interesting Aftermath a From Season Five of "MasterChef"

Do I agree with this? You will have to read it first and decide for yourself. I had long since made up my mind before finding this article. MasterChef Season 5 Fixed: Courtney Lapresi Won Finale After Getting Preferential Treatment – Former Stripper Favoritism BY  STORMY ELIZABETH  ON SEPTEMBER 23, 2014 "They say if you can’t take the heat, you should get out of the kitchen, but what if you like it hot? If you’ve been watching  MasterChef this season 5 , you may have noticed that one contestant in particular seems to  be “winning” challenges  when her dishes don’t seem to be quite up to it.  Courtney Lapresi  has been billed as an “aerial dancer” on the show. So what exactly is that, you ask? It’s a fancy word for stripper. You may term what she does as burlesque, but nekked is nekked and she takes off her  clothes  when she dances, so you have to call them as you see them. Plus is it really...

The Longairc-Green Family

This is a family that was on Nanny 911 , the precursor to Supernanny , which airs on Wednesday nights. While Supernanny is a better production and leaves out some of the dopey American-isms of stupidity (such as the opening scene with a much older nanny head whose television showing the family and their issues turns around into a painting on the wall), this show has its value. These families are clueless or don't bother to try and definitely need help. This family is an exception in that the mother couldn't care less what the monsters do and will do anything to mollify them. The father is more consistent and definitely takes a much more disciplinary stance, but the mother undermines it at every step of the way. The two boys are so unbelievably rude, I'd've killed them where they stood. The little girl only wanted a moment of attention and was not doing anything negative, and the mother was awful to her. The nanny, Nanny Stella, spent the first day observing. When she s...

Shocking!

I always open my day at work by starting up my various programs that I'll bounce back and forth between throughout the insanity that is my normal workday. And they are always in the same order: Internet Outlook Microsoft Excel Microsoft Word The timekeeping program, GenPro, is always running. This is not me being unbelievably anal or just a little OCD, this is logic. I know excatly where everything is. It's just good organisational skills. When I open Outlook it is almost entirely for the e-mail. Yes, I do know how to use all of Outlook (well, 80% of it, any way, but since I use my belovèd Franklin Covey Time Management system (the physical book, not the electronic solution), I only use Outlook for e-mail. What is so shocking, you may ask? Be patient, I'm getting to that. I open the Internet and the default page is Wikipedia, in English. I happen to love that site and skim over whatever interesting things it may have, such as: Today's Featured Article The word thou was...
