I had one of several meltdowns yesterday. The insurance company sent me a letter that wasn't the regular size and I couldn't open it. It is just too awful. I had to wait all day until I got together with friends and had them open it and read it. It wasn't as bad as I thought but they have to nickel/dime you to death. Why don't they just pay the damn bills like they are supposed to. I don't get it. The worst part, at least the most emotional crazy part of this whole ordeal shouldn't be the one thing that is supposed to rescue you because you pay in so much every month. I could go on but I am going to go have fun. They make it hard to have a spiritual journey which is what everyone says this is.

Jokes for the day:
Knock, knock
Who’s there?
Adolf Adolf who?
Adolph ball hit me in de mowf. Dat’s why I dawk dis way.
A young trial lawyer was defending a man accused of burglary. This trial lawyer was known for being witty (and the judge knows this). He tried yet another one of his creative defenses. The judge, while not known for having a sense of humor, decided to here the young lawyer out.
“While my client admits he did, in fact, reach his arm into the window and removed a few trifling articles. However his arm is not himself, and I fail to see how you can punish the whole individual for an offense committed by just his limb.”
“Well put,” the judge replied. “Using your logic, I sentence the defendant’s arm to one year’s imprisonment. He can accompany it or not, as he so chooses.”
The defendant smiled. With his lawyer’s assistance he detached his artificial limb, laid it on the bench, and walked out.
May be almost a good joke, finally
From now on, it’ll never be said that airport ground crews and engineers lack a sense of humor. We dug up a few actual (or at least claimed to be) logged maintenance complaints by QANTAS pilots and the corrective action recorded by mechanics.
