Much to the consternation of many of my family and friends, and perhaps it's my Feb 29 Pisces, or I really DO trust Jesus .. I don't lock house nor car, have lived for all my years without homeowner's ins., pretty much whistle my way through (and around?) life ... (oh yeah .. and I got took in twice .. once with AMWAY and the other Y2K) ... I don't much give a shit about what's in my computer.

Important papers are hard copied with a copy to my trusted daughter and husbamd/family, and my money is more electronic than real ... I don't think I'd (we'd) be devastated for that long if a fire took the house, and burglers might wipe me out for about 10 or 12 large ... (taking my '99 Subaru, this 'puter, an old e-machine, a fax and the pile of firewood) ... I guess I just don't worry that much and wonder why people do.
