THIS WEEK'S DEAR JOHN LETTER!
Dear
John,
My neighbor has been my insurance agent since shortly after we moved in next door to her. We have always gotten along and I consider her a friend. Over the last few years our rates have gone up a little, but we are still happy with them. Recently my cousin started working at a competing insurance agency and is now selling insurance. She has been asking me to move my business to her. I love my cousin, but she hops from place to place quite often. I really don't want to move my stuff to her, only to have her quit and move on in a few months. I also don't want to cause any issues in the family. We all support one another quite a bit. I think I may be the last person in the family to meet with her. I had some pretty good excuses before, but they are starting to get pretty flimsy! Should I just tell her I want to wait until I know she will be there a bit before I make any changes? Who knows, she may be able to save me money, but I also have a great neighbor who has been wonderful to work with.
Signed – Good Neighbor or Good Cousin

A
28-year-old Florida man was arrested after “snoring loudly” and
apparently sleeping behind the wheel in a McDonald’s drive-thru
lane. The case of the dozing dude began about 3:47 a.m. when an
Indian River County sheriff’s deputy went to a McDonald’s for a
suspicious vehicle. A deputy spied a man in a Ford pickup parked in
the outside drive-thru lane “snoring loudly.” The man seemed to
be sleeping in the drive-thru lane. He eventually awakened and the
deputy asked him for his license. “I don’t have one,” he is
quoted as saying. His truck smelled of booze and his speech was
slurred. The man, a Fort Pierce resident, participated in field
sobriety exercises and was arrested on charges of DUI and knowingly
driving with a suspended license. (https://bit.ly/3selpHU)

SCOOP OF THE DAY: Brought to you by www.GiftCardChallenge.org
Parents of tiny babies: When you’re home with the kid, keep a one-sided conversation going about anything and everything while you’re folding laundry, making dinner, or doing whatever else around the house. The the results of a study reveal that a steady stream of idle chatter from mom or dad’s mouth improves the child’s cognitive development, even more so than reading to them does.
Some robbers were arrested on a beach in Brazil after a man noticed two of them were wearing clothes stolen from his house.
A woman on Twitter has a good idea for couples who can never agree on what to watch: “What if there was an app that both you and your partner have where you both swipe right or left on movies that are on your streaming services and when you find a match it lets you know.”
The layout of your bathroom could be causing your luck to go right down the drain. That’s according to Rohit Arya, an expert in “vaastu,” which is the Indian equivalent of Chinese “feng shui.” Arya says it’s considered extremely bad luck to have your toilet in the same room as your shower or bathtub because it supposedly pollutes the same area where you clean yourself. Vaastu practitioners say you can’t really become prosperous unless you move your toilet out of your house — or at least put it in a separate room. Since nearly all bathrooms usually combine toilets with tubs, Arya says you can reduce your bad luck by simply keeping the lid of the toilet shut whenever you’re not using it. Arya is the author of the book Vaastu: The Indian Art of Placement.

authorities say that a woman attacked her sleeping husband with a
knife after dreaming he had been unfaithful. 33-year-old Lindsey
Stephens was arrested on aggravated domestic assault charges after
stabbing her husband multiple times in the back. Stephens told
investigators she “had a dream that her husband was messing
around,” police say, so she went into the kitchen, grabbed a knife,
and attacked him while he was still in bed. The victim was
hospitalized after suffering four to seven stab wounds. He underwent
surgery Monday and is expected to be okay. Stephens made her first
court appearance Monday where a judge set her bond $10,000. As of
Thursday, she remains in custody at the Jones County Detention

A
Minnesota man got so enraged that people at his gym weren’t wearing
masks, he pointed a handgun at a manager’s chest. 64-year-old
Michael M. Florhaug was charged with assault with a dangerous weapon
in the incident at an LA Fitness in Maplewood. Prosecutors allege
assistant manager Mike Olson tackled and disarmed him after he
complained to a desk employee about masks not being used by members.
“I just kind of knew what had to be done,” Olson told the
newspaper of disarming Florhaug. “It didn’t take much thinking.
It was more of a reaction.” Florhaug told responding cops who
arrested him that he wanted to get photos of people not wearing masks
inside and claimed to have only “flashed the gun.” He remained
jailed on $50,000 bail.(https://bit.ly/3on8ZLD)
