Welcome to July! In this month of celebrations and cookouts, let's take a break from the normally serious content of this column and enjoy a tidbit from the lighter side of the news. So kick back with an ice-cold lemonade, grab a hot dog off the grill, and take a moment to appreciate that reality can be weird and insurance can be fun!

Disclaimer: The following column contains numerous references to religious beliefs and deities. Although this in itself may offend few, adding insurance to the mix may lead some to accusations of blasphemy. If you find yourself in the latter group, or if you simply are terminally humorless, then please move along–nothing to read here.
