I had to get insurance so I can do chainsaw carving at public venues. I have coverage for $3 million personal injury per occurrence, with $100K coverage for damage to premises. It is a performer-based policy, called "clown" insurance in the industry (because it was originally offered to professional clowns).

So now, when I see a CL ad offering free firewood but you have to be insured, I can produce a copy of the policy from the glove box of the truck and show them. And when I drop the tree on the garage and they scream out, "Jesus, what kind of clown are you anyway?", I can reply, "An insured one."
 
Nice bring your card I got a tree in mind! ;-)
 
Cool. I've been wanting a new house for a while now.

lol sounds fair to me too Uhmmm is the neighbors new chevy crossover covered too :lol:
 
This so reminds me of my first job right out of the Army. The company took an extra twenty five cents a week out of everybody's pay for a "maternity pool" that paid something like $250 to any employee's family that had a baby. I pitched a groan about it because I was single. The company president told me that when I was on a date I should just look her in the eye and say "Don't worry. I am insured.".

Have fun clowning around BK.
 
Best laugh of the morning, BK- thanks! :lol:

BK, if a tree falls in the house, you can just carve something out of the tree and make it a built in feature. I like BBs comment, I sure could have used that insurance in the old days.
 
It would be funny to see you pull up to someone's house with a tiny car and ten guys get out with chainsaws! :lol:

Free firewood for the taking... The catch.... its still standing! I have a LARGE maple in the center of my yard, probably 65ft tall... definitely an excellent source of firewood for the right person if you cut and remove it... YOU MUST BE INSURED or dont even call.... 50 years of experience in tree trimming will not replace damage god forbid something were to ever happen. There is enough room to drop the tree in sections safely.

Call of text if you are interested
