Just watching Sunday's night's "Diaries" and god damn ... Corey (Corey & Evelin) is a moron! He forgets to rent the room for a second week and then tries to re-propose to Evelin, and then leaves without her? And all this after lying to her, admittedly, about how long they'll have to live in "Mill A, Washington." (I'm a longtime Washington resident and had never heard of that spot in the woods somewhere down by Portland). And oh yeah, also, he wants her to convert to LDS? Jesus. What a mess. How he ever got her to give him a moment of her time is remarkable.

Surely there are no bigger idiots in 90 Day history than Corey, right?

If anyone from Zach Bryan's operation is reading this, you simply have to provide more points of sale for merchandise -- like 10 or 20 times more.

Just got back from Eugene show -- it was great! -- but even DURING Zach's performance, the lines for the merchandise stands took an hour, and (I get that the fans were free not to wait), people missed half or more of the show just waiting in line. Before the show, they were double that in length.

Let's face it, the merchandise is a license to print money. You are RAKING IT IN. Cut back from 5,000,000% profit down to say, 2,000,000, and get more tables, more staff, more card readers, etc. Or insist that the venues provide much, much more.

Great show. Really!

Is there a collective conspiracy to which you all sign upon birth or moving to Oregon that you MUST drive in the left lane on Interstate 5, no matter what?

I've been all 'round this nation of ours and left-lane campers are universal in this country, but the Beaver State is, without doubt, the national champ. What gives?

And yes, I know this isn't a new topic, but it's been at least two weeks since it was last brought up!

I love Oregon and the entire PNW, but if this one thing could be cured ... heaven!

(edit: sorry ... should say "very OLD life insurance policy")

I'll try to keep this concise:

My 86-year old mother-in-law ("Sue") is going through all of her stuff, trying to recycle, throw away, keep, donate, etc., all of her stuff. Today, Sue found a life insurance policy, issued to her father-in-law (my wife's paternal grandfather -- let's call him Ed). It was a $500 whole life policy, issued in, believe it or not, 1935, with Ed's wife (my wife's paternal grandmother ... let's call her Grace) listed as the sole beneficiary. (fun fact: the policy cost 8 cents a month!).

There is an amendment (if that's the right term) changing the beneficiary to my mother-in-law, Sue, and father-in-law ("Earl"), in 1969, because that's Grace died. Ed, the insured individual, died in 1975.

There is no documentation that the policy was ever paid out. But, I also don't know if it was valid or invalid (for whatever reason) at the time of Ed's death. My father-in-law, Earl, has also since died, so my MIL would be the sole living beneficiary.

So, it's been 51 years since the Ed died, and more than a decade since his son, Earl, died.

Is it possible to see if this policy should be paid out and is still valid? The insurance company (one of the big ones) is still in business, even under the same name as it was known in 1935.

Any advice? Just call 'em?
