Default Hurricane Flo

Our thoughts and prayers go out to the Barners in the way of Hurricane Flo. Hope all are safe.

Flo is just one nasty storm pounding people at the moment. There is a super typhoon (Mangkhut) hitting the Philipines that has greater potential to kill people than Flo. It is expected to hit other highly populated countries on its way to China.

Yes bad times I'm sorry for those in the way of these things.

With all the rain the Carolinas are getting there will be a 'flood' literally of water damaged cars hitting the used car market like after Houston last year.

California wildfires destroyed a lot of collector cars I'm sure we'll see more destruction of old cars with Hurricane Flo.

Speaking of which, I don't know which is more annoying, Hurricane Flo or Flo on the Progressive Ins. ads both are a nuisance!

I went to a Progressive claims center a few years ago and joked with the lady helping me. I told her I had assumed that they all wore uniforms like Flo. She politely said no and rolled her eyes.

Annoying or not, Progressive's ad campaign with Flo is effective.

I may have to check them out. Auto-Owner's Insurance on my house has really gone up the last two years. My agent said the reason was because A-O are sponsoring a car in NASCAR and are trying to re-coup the millions that is costing them.

Unless he was just blowing smoke where it don't need to be, on me.
