Description
Hi Dee Ho... good Rositeers!
I know I promised an Xmas or Chira scene next, but...
I had to get this off my chest!
My insurance company sent a Rep out to inspect my property.
They discovered I had a trampoline in the back yard.
Later, they informed me that they would cancel my policy
if I didn't remove the trampoline. I **COMPLIED** and told them so!
They insisted that I send them photographic evidence of proof.
I pointed out that they should send a Rep back to verify my action.
I stated that a photo proves nothing!
I can take the Trampoline down and put it up in 10 minutes.
Or the Trampoline could be moved out of shot of the camera.
They still insisted I take the effort and time to send photographic proof!
I can only tolerate so much stupidity... So I sent them this photo of my yard.
If they don't like it.. let them come surprise me and inspect my yard!
If pushed further... I'll just get another carrier!
Am I wrong?
Anyway.. Hope your all having a great weekend.
I get two weeks off next week.. yippie!
Haven't had a real vacation in 10 years.
Best to you all....
***** Dave :^) *****
Followup: They said they would waiver the trampoline if I could make it inaccessable to trespassers. This photo I sent them is proof positive I have done everything humanly possible to comply. They renued my contract without comment.... Dave :^)

You are fantastic....Would have loved to see their faces when they saw the proof...LOL...You're a bad dog.....LOL....Thanks for sharing this wonderful frustration...X X X !!!!!!!!!!(wet)
very funny and insurance companies suck big time
Perfect. ;)
Cute and funny Perfect & Enjoy that vacation:) Vote n hugs Susan~
I agree, I had an accident and the party that hit me come from a parking lot and two lanes of traffic to hit me in the center lane turning left, he came from my right and I was found 20% at fault. I believe it was so both insurance companies can raise our rates and you have no say in the matter unless you have a lot of money to fight them. Love the humor in your image, fantastic:):):)...V
Dave this proves without the shadow of a doubt that you no longer have a trampoline and will most certainly satisfy your insurer. However ol buddy I foresee major trouble heading your way. Dave did you really think things through before sending this photo??? From what I gather your insurer is staffed with competent and intelligent people who upon receipt of this photo will realize that you were pulling a fast one on them all along. Fact they will now see that the trampoline was in fact a cover up to hide what you where up to. You will now be accused of importing illegal game for resale, and profit namely Shark,and Raptors a felony I belive. This information will be forwarded to the IRS and I know that at that point insurance will be the least of your worries. I trust that you have kept your tax returns since the day you were born. I do not wish to alarm you ol friend but I sincerely believe that your up coming holiday may be spent behind bars. I only hope that you will have access to a computer while in the slammer. You can then forward a photo to your insurer showing that you have re-installed the trampoline and finally get yourself out of this awful mess.Stay cool it will all work itself out ! he-he ! Your ol buddy George..........."V" (for daring do) he-he!!!!!!!! ps most excellent photo they will like it too !!!!!!!
ROTFL! You go, Dave! There are politicians and there are insurance companies; neither ones make sense half the time! Where I live, they practically did this with the pool and spa. Even welded 3/6 gates shut, one was a handicapped accessible gate. I will never pass by the pool or the rec area and not think of this image again. I can't even have a small ashtray or plant on my 6 inch balcony handrail now as it might "plummet to the ground and cause devasting destruction to the community" according to insurance reps! I'm so glad you sent this and I just know someone got a laugh on the other end. This is just too funny and well done and you are your sense of humor knows no bounds! Way beyond my imagination for certain! The only thing missing are snipers on the neighbors roofs, but perhaps they are there in fatiques! Outstanding work and kudos to you!
ROFLMAO!!!! This is just perfect! You are such a criminal Davester! I just love the sign! LOL! They should send omeone out IMO, you are absolutely right! I love your twisted mind and renders! Carry on! Fight the good fight! :)
EXCELLENT render,enjoy that vacation Dave V
you right 100%
Dave, all you have to do now, is make up copies of this, pass them around to the neighbors and inform them the insurance hounds are on the prowl. that would put them on alert. Love the pic and your sense of humor...VOTE...Silkylady...
ROFL!! Very cool compositite work, and the humor really immediately comes through!! Thanks for the laugh!
LOL - great idea!!!
HA,ha,love the humour in this excellent picture!!!Fantastic!!!have a wonderful vacation!
I think the junk-yard dog is outclassed here..... Great pic and story. Good luck with the insurers!
LOL!! At least not one anyone would care to get to. Too funny and thanks my friend for the chuckle! I especially love the shark moat, excellent, vote and hugs!!
sir, i can clearly see a trampoline situated under the dog so that would clearly consist of a breach of conditions.your policy should be cancelled forthwith....However if you wish to take out our "backyard shark attack,with third party raptor fire and theft" policy, we may offer you a small discount on our new "deathly trampoline" policy....say 1 percent? (we also do pet insurance) have a nice break..great render!!!
BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! Priceless! They suck, you rule! Find another carrier!
Nicely done! This is much safer than those trampolines. Stupidity knows no bounds! Stick it to the idiots.
This is so funny! I hope you really did send this to them. I would love to see the expression on their face when they got it! Excellent job Dave!
The lengths one takes to protect the trespassers from the dangers of those insidious trampolines..lol.
No trampoline even after such security measures??
Glad to see you have complied with the insurance company's concern as to the safety of the trampoline. Now....what are you going to do as to the issue of the sharks??!
I personally would have loved a couple of gun turrets, LOL!!!!! This is outstanding!! What a hoot! I do believe they want a photograph that they can take into court if you ever have a trampoline accident so they won't have to cover you.
This is brilliant - however - I am quite glad you are not one of my neighbours. :) :)
YOU GO DAVE!! Stick it to the man,This pic is Great Love every detail!
omg dave this is nuts we have swimming pools on the back yard and kids drown every day and here they are coming down on you so bad about a trampoline what the hell next???? Get a pet bull and mail it to them in a very large box give him a sleeping pill time it to when he wakes up saying thanks for the warning here is a gift for your kind thoughts lol: get em dave!
love the art work, sooooooooooooooooo funny. The whole composition is great, especially the raptors and the dog, priceless. lol 10 days off, come for a visit
a superior being uses humor over anger, well done!
