Okay, now, that just needs to be the plot line for your first novel. In the style of John le Carre or Tom Clancy. I’d buy it . . .

You do know that’s how insurance works, don’t you? I’ve never made a claim on my car insurance or my homeowner’s insurance, and my health insurance only a time or two, and not at all for the past fifteen or twenty years. What do you think they’re doing with my premiums? Do you think they’re saving them up for me, and…

Oh, sorry! I misunderstood! I thought your post meant your parents were atheists and raised you the same, and then you became Christian. I just misinterpreted the punctuation! My bad.

Interesting combo! What did your parents think when you went over to the dark side?

Bless your heart, but, again, I think there are some issues you may want to work on through therapy or meditation or whatever. You really seem to have a lot you’re carrying around.

Here’s an idea I sometimes use when faced with office/public situations. If someone asks why I’m not eating Susie’s cookies, I say, in an ominous, conspiratorial whisper, “because I’ve seen her pick her nose just once too often.” If I’m not eating a particular catered dish, I say, “Well, I read about the caterer’s…
