Everybody dies, Tracey. Someone's carrying a bullet for you right now, doesn't even know it. The trick is to die of old age before it finds you.

That's been my experience too, Sail. I've never really looked at other insurance rates since around '94 because I feel secure with the claims billing and customer service at the one I've had.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

That is freaky, Calli, and makes me worry that I don't have the appropriate coverage. All this time without insurance for my apartment. I get to the bit about sizing and am intimidated.

Who do we write to in order to get more two letter words? Especially some with c? Unamerican has "ch" but that doesn't do me any good.

Working from home because I have to wrangle pain meds. Barely possible to do from the office.

All this time without insurance for my apartment.

Getitgetitgetit!!! It's really easy, fairly inexpensive (I think I paid around $12/month.) My friends had easily over $5K of electronics stolen, and no insurance.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Yeah, I pay about the same as sarameg for renter's insurance. Actually, I should probably review that with my agent, as I've gotten a lot more electronic stuff since I decided on my policy.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Calli, that is freaky! Glad the insurance co. is on the ball, though.

Shut UP!!! Sooo cute. There's a female pit puppy in my neighborhood who is that color silver-gray. I have to pick her up and cuddle her every time I see her.

Thrive to spite them

I got renter's insurance when I moved up here. I had never had it before but decided I should get it. Plus I got it through Gieco so I got a discount on my auto insurance (the actual renter's policy is through Traveller's Insurance). It was a lot easier than I thought, I just answered questions over the phone and guessed on some things. I'm pretty sure I got more coverage than what I would need. I paid for the whole year and can't remember exactly but under $200 for the whole year.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I have got to call Progressive and have them add renter's insurance to my auto insurance. I did have it with them once a few years ago, but forgot to renew. I paid around $120 for the year then.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Cute puppers! I want it!

I just got renters insurance. But there is no way my stuff is work $25,000. The only pieces of furniture I bought new are 2 $50 bookcases. I mean, it might take $25,000 to replace all at once, but that isn't really how insurance works, right?
