    Now, now. Even we insurance professionals need to see the silly and light side of things! Even if but once a year. Another \”story\” in today\’s IIABNY Insider should fit nicely with Santa\’s liability waiver. Merry Christmas, All.

    We are not dealing with the jolly old Santa of our youths here people! You know he has been checking that list of his to see who\’s been naughy and it\’s not more, \”Let them have coal!\” but more like \”Sue the ornary beeotches!!\”

    Welcome to the new century people…and make sure you have personal injury insurance under your homeowners policy. You may need it.

    Oh and another thing…don\’t call him Santa Clause anymore. He likes to be called \”Holiday Man\” The Santa thing was becoming to offensive to many people who when thinking of Santa made them think about Christmas and it was too hard for them to handle.

    Ah, but wait. Classifying people as \”naughty\” or \”nice\” is an unfair, discriminatory practice with a disparate impact on people that are humor-challenged.

    Of course, even that\’s not their fault…Thanks to the trial lawyers, nobody\’s ever been able to prove that their are actual consequences to not qualifying for the \”nice\” rating…

    Now if only those elves would take their show elsewhere…AND SOMEBODY PASS ME THE EGG NOG!!!

    It is a good thing that Old ST Nick (AKA: Santa) does not work out of Texas. Its been reported employees there, after many years of service, have been fired for being overweight or smoking on their own time. Do you thing Santa would qualify for health insurance? Don\’t think so! I think Santa should move to CA, then he can apply for SSI benefits. Maybe file a couple age and weight discrimation lawsuits, then retire in LA. Merry Christmas & Prosperious New Years to Agents & Brokers everywhere.

    You all missed the most important part. Santa has been watching us!! He sees you when you\’re sleeping! He never got a court order for that which means an incredible invasion of privacy and our right to privacy under the constitution. Is that not a federal offense??? Where is the uproar!! Lets not be a bunch of sheep! It is a slippery slope, first Santa, then the Easter Bunny (AKA the Springtime Rodent–to be PC). Oh the humanity!

    I WAS WONDERING WHEN THIS WOULD SURFACE. THIS BRINGS BACK MEMORIES OF HALLOWEEN 2004, WHEN THE TRICK OR TREAT LIABILITY WAIVER CAME OUT. MAN, WHAT A COMMOTION THAT CAUSED. A LOT OF PEOPLE THOUGHT IT WAS FOR REAL. COME ON, PEOPLE. RELAX & ENJOY LIFE AND THE HOLIDAYS, YES, THAT MEANS \”MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL \” IN NORMAL SPEAK. AND A \”HAPPY HOLIDAYS\” TO ALL OF THE \”PC\” PEOPLE……..

    PS.. IF SANTA GETS STUCK IN MY CHIMNEY, AM I COVERED UNDER MY HOMEOWNERS POLICY???
