So now he's still going to take off 3 plus weeks for Christmas? Thought he wasn't going to do that with Beasley?

12/9 is the last show of the year.
Good work if you can get it I guess.

We just made our first letter to Santa, I'll ask Chob to proof read it for me before I send it.

Considering that only 2/3 of the cars on the road in Florida have insurance, expecting someone to buy life insurance is a lofty goal.

Good point, but car insurance is way more expensive than life ins.

Ive never understood the concept of "life insurance". You buy insurance in case something happens... you get auto insurance in case you get in a wreck. You buy homeowners insurance incase something happens to your home.. There is no "in case" with death... you're going to die, theres no question about it. It really shouldn't be called insurance.

I see what you're saying but look at it like this...
In my case specifically, I have life insurance through work (10x what my annual salary is). I just turned 40, married,have two kids 14 & 12 and a mortgage and have no plans on dying any time soon That being said, if something unfortunate were to happen to me I know my wife and kids would be taken care of financially and they wouldn't lose the house we've worked so hard for or have to go online and beg for money via a go fund me. It's piece of mind and good planning more than anything. Am I throwing away $20 a month? Possibly, but if something does happen, I can die knowing my family isn't ruined.

Oh Im not against life insurance, I was just complaining about the terminology.

I have life insurance through my job as well.

[Cpt. Mcgillicutty]

Please Bubba, stop dragging out this BRN X-mas party, nobody gives a shit about it, just like last year when you did this and nobody gave a shit
