Short Term Car
Insurance and Flying Cows
I can see the funnel from the
front yard. It looks to be about 2 miles away and is headed right
for us. I need to find a phone pronto! You see, I have a ’67
corvette in the garage over yonder and it ain’t insured. If that
tornado stays on course, I’ll never see it again. I never drive
anyway since Betsy died. It’s just not the same. Betsy was a good
dog.
If I can get a hold of Jack Brown, over at the insurance place, he
can slap some short term car insurance on the vette before my life
is literally turned upside down. Jack has helped me before when it
comes to stuff like this. He was the one that told me about short
term car insurance to begin with. You know, Jack kind of looks like
the guy who was on Dancing with the Stars, but was eliminated after
the first round.

The sky has gotten much
darker over the last few minutes. You can feel the ground rumble if
you try. The tornado is now about a mile away. It has taken a path
down old route 87, wiping out the dairy farms that line the highway.
I’ll be finding cows in the trees in the morning. The last big
tornado we had managed to dodge every building along its 5 mile
journey. We aren’t so lucky this time.
Through my binoculars, I’m shocked to see hundreds – maybe thousands
of cows caught up in the violent whirlwind. Some are upside-down,
some are sideways and some appear to just be standing. There are a
few calves and they spin around faster than the big cows do. I
wonder if it’s an optical illusion or some scientific theory? The
cows look like kids in a ‘fun-wheel’ at the carnival, pinned to the
interior walls of a giant, spinning tube. Unfortunately for the
cows, there’s no rising floor to come greet them as the spinning
comes to halt.
The funnel gets closer and closer and I can actually hear cows
landing with a ‘thud’ as the storm gets within spitting distance of
my house. Chickens are dropping like flies as well. Their feathers
are gone and it looks like a smorgasbord of plucked fryers spinning
overhead as they too drop one by one from the blackened sky. Was
that a flying pig that just missed my head? Yes it was and one just
landed on the porch swing, squealing in delight at finding the only
soft spot to land in all the chaos. Isn’t there a saying about pigs
flying?
One minute I’m watching Wheel of Fortune, with a plate of fried
baloney on my lap and the next I’m watching falling cows start to
rain on my garage. Why I didn’t get short term car insurance for the
corvette is beyond me. Jack Brown even called me a while back and
told me I needed to cover my car with short term car insurance. I
remember asking him what could possibly happen to the car sitting in
the garage?
