if you had just gotten back from the hospital because you had sprained your arm falling off a ladder, then would you be in the kitchen calmly drinking coffee and discussing life insurance with your wife?



My old man would have popped a pain killer, flopped on the bed and told everyone to calm down because he wasn't dead yet.










Which probably explains why I had to pay for his funereal.

My wife and I saw that ad, and had the same reaction.  

I expected it to be an ad for some supplemental Medicaid insurance or something - not LIFE insurance.  It's a bit weird.

Pain killer and a nap.



Hell, I didn't even fall off of a ladder today, and pain killer and a nap still sounds like a good idea.

When I stuck two of my fingers in a table saw blade I went to the hospital, got bandaged up, came home and finished sawing.

I'd tell him to get his candy ass back up the ladder and finish his damn work.

When my grandpa was 76 he needed to send a radio back for repair. My grandma was going to pick up a box while she was in town buying groceries. Of course grandpa couldn't wait, so he went to the garage, used the ladder to climb on top of the work bench. He then pulled the ladder up on top the bench, and climbed up the ladder to get a box off of the top shelf. He fell and broke his arm, and grandma returned to find him sitting on the garage floor holding his arm.



Grandma had a temper and that day grandpa probably came close to using his life insurance.

I don't like hypotheticals.  Now where'd I put that ladder?

What if there were no hypothetical questions?
