The Protestant's Three Huts

A Protestant was stranded all alone on an island. He begins sending smoke signals, hoping that somebody will find him.

Ten years pass, and a boat is sailing by. The captain notices the smoke signals, and decides to pull into the island. When he docks, he sees three huts. The Protestant runs out and embraces the captain, and says, “Thank you for rescuing me!” The captain says, “No problem, where are the others?” The man says, “There is only me, I am all alone on this island.”

The captain, confused, asks, “If you are all alone, then why are there three huts?” The man says, “Well, the first hut is where I live, that’s my home. The second hut is my church, where I worship.” The captain asks, “And what is the third hut?” The man says, “Oh, that was the church I used to go to.”

How Many Were At The Rally?

Count the toiletsLooks like there are eight.
Read all about the Portable Sanitation Association International, the PSAI.org - Dang, whoda thunk there was an association for Kybos!
Then, read Special Events Usage Guide and do the math.
This should tell you how many people the guys who tend the toilets estimated would fit into the space of the rally, how long the rally would last, and how many toilets they thought they would need based on their estimates.

Wassup!

What Happened? My Life Insurance Policy Just Went South, In A Hurry!

I just received a phone call from Deanza Pearson of Central Security Life Insurance Company of Richardson, Texas.

In 1984 I purchased from Andrew Jackson Life Insurance Company of Jackson Mississippi, the agent was Lindsey Head, a $100,000.00 life insurance policy. I paid premiums of $1500.00 a year for seven years then the policy paid for itself.

In early 1993 Dan White, the owner of Andrew Jackson Life Insurance Company, bankrupted the company. The state of Mississippi stepped in and took over the company. My policy ended up with Central Security Life Insurance Company.

This morning Deanza Pearson of Central Security Life Insurance Company called me and told me that to keep my life insurance I would have to start paying a yearly premium of $2,867.19.

This year.

Next year it will be higher.

The current economic crisis cost me my life insurance.

Now, if I were a betting man, assuming I live another 20 years, do I want to spend $57,348.80 to get $100,000?

Or, am I better of buying term and spending $20,000 to get $100,000?

Or am I better to keep my money and try not to get angry at those greedy SOBs who robbed us all?

Hey, Washington, I could use some of that bailout money to pay my life insurance premium.

Heck, I would be happy with just a portion of the clothing allowance.

What Happened?

Well, something happened. How else did we go from this:
to this?
Maybe they shoulda stuck with the maverick theme?....
