More about Mike:"Lived my life in Mariposa-Mt. bullion-Bear Valley amongst the greatest people in the world and just outside Yosemite valley, the most beautiful place in the world.Growing up close to the airport because my Dad was always at the Airport Inn Bar and Grill but at that Time it was called the "The Hills Cafe".My brother and I would go to the "Little Church In The Hills" in the morning and walk to the Bar to meet up with Dad then usually go hunting, fishing or swimming at Bagby or Briceburg. I saw alot of folks crying in there beer at the Bar but also had great moments in Church crying in the Joy of the Lord. Lawyer VS. Insurance This is the best lawyer story of the year, decade, and probably the century. A Charlotte, NC, lawyer purchased a box of very rare and expensive cigars,: then insured them against fire among other things. Within a month having smoked his entire stockpile of these great cigars and without yet having made even...Expand for more
his first premium payment on the policy, the lawyer filed a claim against the insurance company. In his claim, the lawyer stated the cigars were lost "in a series of small fires." The insurance company refused to pay, citing the obvious reason: that the man had consumed the cigars in the normal fashion. The lawyer sued .. and won! In delivering the ruling, the judge agreed with the insurance company that the claim was frivolous. The Judge stated, nevertheless, that the lawyer held a policy from the company in which it had warranted that the cigars were insurable and also guaranteed that it would insure them against fire, without defining what is considered to be unacceptable fire, and was obligated to pay the claim. Rather than endure lengthy and costly appeal process, the insurance company accepted the ruling and paid $15,000 to the lawyer for his loss of the rare cigars lost in the "fires." NOW FOR THE BEST PART... After the lawyer cashed the check, the insurance company had him arrested on 24 counts of ARSON!!!! With his own insurance claim and testimony from the previous case being used against him, the lawyer was convicted of intentionally burning his insured property and was sentenced to 24 months in jail and a $24,000 fine. This is a true story and was the 1st place winner in the recent Criminal Lawyers Award Contest. Fly or die attitude and if I die I will be in the comfort of the Lord Jesus's Glory.This world is complex and dangerous I think we should all try to not understand this complexity but embrace it through the wisdom of the Lord Christ Jesus's red letter words of comfort and wisdom.".
