Absolutely. Even for suicide given a year or two. Unlike healthcare, life insurance pays on the nose. They only have 1 chance to get it right before customers run away.

OK, I agree that will be the reaction. So maybe some will take the action a little further down the line from CEO.

Now that you know the movie, search for the bank robbery scene. It may be the best gunfight ever filmed.

There are about 50,000 gun deaths in the US every year, same as vehicular deaths. About half the gun deaths are suicides. About none of the vehicle deaths are.

was shocked when her child showed her the Wicked.com site which, she says, “pasted scenes of pornographic advertisements across her phone screen.”

If that's the worst thing that happens to that child, she is truly blessed.

Rain forecasts are mostly spot on for me. Keep in mind, %chance of rain is covering a wide area. If we want better rain forecasts we have to dial in the resolution.
