It is fix up time around here this week. Car, sink, door jamb, and the furnace. The furnace was our biggest worry with how expensive it was going to cost. A ticking noise could be heard through the house every time the air conditioner came on. The heating/cooling company came out yesterday morning (the last time they came here, we had no hot water resulting from a chipmunk/red squirrel deciding that the chimney was a water slide and ended up in the water heater, clogging up the air flow). The guy said, "it sounds like something is hitting the fan in there." He took off the cover and looked in. Nothing. He couldn't find a single thing wrong. He then reached both arms in up to his elbows and viola! He pulled out a piece of paper and handed it to me. It was an insurance policy. It didn't belong to us. Nor to the previous owners (who were here for 16 years). It belonged to the Werners. How much did they pay for this insurance? $2. What was the insurance for? Halloween Disaster.

That is stinking hysterical!! I have never heard of such a thing!!! Sure glad you're covered now though...Hween is almost around the corner, you know. You can't be too prepared...
That's awesome! What a great youth group fundraiser. And those church members who DIDN'T buy the insurance? LOOKOUT! :)
Too bad it's probably 30+ years old... :)
I just wonder how many years it'll take Alina's toys that she dropped down her heat register to make it to the furnace...
