Subject: Re: [Puptcrit] Puppetry Insurance


Isn't it somewhat ironic that we will insure our business and/or our 
puppets before ourselves. Between business, health, home, auto, life, 
etc., insurance is probably the single biggest monthly cost. I'm too 
scared to to the math, but added together it seems likely it exceeds 
50% of my income. Sometimes it seems like I am a reverse employee of 
the insurance industry. I work hard, them give THEM a paycheck. Tort 
reform would go a long way to curbing the spiraling costs of insurance. 
(But I'm not looking to open another political thread, so those with a 
political bent, please ignore this post.)
