I know that this sounds like a story but it is true, while Hurricane Ike was approaching Texas a man who has a pet lion, now I know that part sounds like a story, he tried to get his lion to safety and got caught in the hurricane, He found refuge in a church with other people seeking shelter from the storm. They placed the lion in the sanctuary of the church and rode out the storm. When the storm lifted humans and lion were all safe ready to be rescued, I think I could find a better way to seek shelter from a huge storm like Hurricane Ike than to be trapped with a lion in a church. I am just glad the story had a happy ending and everyone including the lion were found safe and sound.

Long lines
As I went to fill up my truck with gasoline yesterday I was horrified to see long lines at every gas station, and some gas stations were already out of gasoline. I was forced to fill up with premium gasoline where I normally buy regular gasoline. The station we were at was already out of regular and mid grade gasoline. The price today at spots here in Nashville is approaching $5.00 a gallon, if you can find gasoline to buy that is. Today we are going to go out and get some paper products so we do not run out if there is a shortage. We filled up some tubs with food a couple of months ago just in case of something just like this was to occur.
Loss of a loved one
Any time there is a lass of a loved one the last item to come to the minds of the grieving family is burial insurance. With the passing of my brother in law this last week it has become very apparent to me that I need to update my burial insurance and make sure my family is covered in case of an accident or sudden death.
Other items I will need to make sure that are covered are my life insurance with updated beneficiaries and mortgage insurance to make sure the family home stays in the family long after I have passed away. I had no idea mortgage protection insurance was so very important until the sisters husband passed away leaving them with no protection.
After updating my life insurance I will get my wife’s updated too and that way we are covered in the event of either one of us passing away. This is a very touchy subject around the family right now and I may get a bit of flak for pushing this through right now but I really feel like it is super important, right now especially.
NAA Life Insurance Company will be a very important part of this updating I really like the protection that they offer and they have stepped up in the past to give us great coverage. This is an investment in piece of mind and I really need the closure right now.
Sanity please come back
The first weekend of the football season has been filled with a rash of insanity, major players going down with injuries and teams winning who have no business winning I mean who in their right mind would of thought that the Chicago Bears would beat up on the Indianapolis Colts like they did, and San Diego losing was a real shock to me, I had money on them to win for gosh sakes. It looks like this year is going to be one of those wacky years that come along every once in a while, where nothing goes like it should and we are liable to have some strange teams in the Super Bowl. I guess that means my two teams the Cards and the Titians have a shot after all.
Career change
One of the most exciting things in my life, is that I have always been able to see the best way to do things. I have been able to see the very best way to do things without really thinking about it, the best route to the store the best way across a lake, this has all come very easy to me. Now I am looking at becoming a freight broker. The job of freight brokering seems like the right job for me. I have been involved with freight shipping before and really liked the work it was something I did very well.
I started searching for information to become a freight broker and the site I found had a lot of information I could use and was very well written. This is a very good business to get into and FreightBrokering.info had all the information I needed to get my feet wet and pursue this career change.
I think that getting into this business will really make my life 100% easier and more lucrative. Being a freight broker would be fun and a career that I could get my teeth into, I can not wait to get started with this great career change.
