Started off donating to USO since they were good to me long ago, but have added others along the way. Thanks for donating.<br /><br />Stevestevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14470634215313696595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8984499113019674536.post-42981880167934080042010-12-08T15:05:11.797-08:002010-12-08T15:05:11.797-08:00Steve, I do not. However, if I were to blog only ...Steve, I do not. However, if I were to blog only about my profession, I would risk putting whatever scant readership I do have into a catatonic state as I held forth daily on physical progressing, stern tube seals, CBSP antennas, Mil-spec non-skid, pre-delivery checklists and Work Task Authorizations. And I think it's safe to say that the interwebs, in general, would be far less interesting if everyone else did this as well.<br /><br /><br /><br />So, the fact that the Insurance Department went from approving the rate hikes without change to denying them altogether doesn't raise an eyebrow for you?<br /><br />You are a far more trusting soul than I am.<br /><br /><br /><br />Off topic: thanks again for the heads-up about the Marine Corps Scholarship Fund. I made a donation in Will and Linsey's name last week.Deanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02448369692335981936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8984499113019674536.post-21533618344114901002010-12-08T08:31:46.149-08:002010-12-08T08:31:46.149-08:00Do you work in the insurance industry. Rate hikes ...Do you work in the insurance industry. Rate hikes of 20%-47% sound like what you see when they are trying to get people to drop their individual insurance. The highest we have seen in the last 10 years was a 26% increase in one year for our group.<br /><br />Stevestevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14470634215313696595noreply@blogger.com
