• Ok, McCain’s speech isn’t the shot out of the park that Palin delivered last night, but its a good solid double off the wall… #

So there’s this talking gecko on tv trying to pimp insurance to you. He started out just with auto insurance, now he’s expanded to almost everything. Maybe he’ll be selling you insurance on your new HD LCD tv next, who knows. Personally I like the ads where he’s selling Motorcycle Insurance.

I don’t have one, but he does a good job of introducing it and it really makes me want to run out and buy a bike just to get the insurance. Well. Not really. But its nice to know that in todays day and age you can get quotes for virtually anything online. Amy and I went through and took out some good insurance last year (I’m pretty sure I’ve mentioned it already) to cover both of us in case anything happens, and we’re covered on the house and the cars. As a good bonus, we get discounts on home owners for having an alarm system, the cars for our driving status, and everything because we have multiple policies with the company.

It really works out in our favor for making sure our family is protected. If you haven’t thought of protecting your family, maybe you should.

We’re in a drought. Well, we’ve been in a drought for several years actually, but things finally got to the point this past summer where people stood up and took notice. Unfortunately, this winter it seems that every other day its been raining. Here this morning we’re already over an inch of rain in the dog bowls. Which is nice, because according to NOAA, most of the lakes in the area are where they should be at this time of year, the one exception being Lake Lanier which has no chance as long as the Corp of Engineers keeps releasing water to Alabama and Florida.

Anyway, its raining here again today. Yesterday we had nice weather (it wasn’t perfect but it was close) and today we’re in the middle of a monsoon. Could be worse, i suppose, it could be snowing.

Of course, I haven’t added rain barrels to the downspouts or anything yet so I’m not collecting the rain water even though i should be. I hope to add at least one or two rain barrels in the back yard to help out so I can water the plants this summer.

Anywho enough about the weather here, whats it like in your neck of the woods??
