Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Hurricane Sandy ripped half of the shingles and most of the trim off my house. The roofing contractor quoted us $18K, Allstate cut us a check for $1500. A family about a mile from me lost their entire house sans the foundation, State farm gave them $1750 to "rebuild".

I think there are a lot of people who would show up to help if you needed it. I do a good job with interior painting, (and cooking large lasagnas for helpers ) and I'm sure among the thousands of members here there are those with carpentry skills and so on that would be proud to donate time and materials to help fix what they could. A little help from each person could translate into a real old fashioned 'barn raising'.

Yeah, that would probably be a hoot (party time!), but hopefully it won't be necessary. About the worst I would imagine is one or more trees falling on the house, garage, or my old reptile business related buildings. But hopefully that won't happen. Probably our stream will flood out the section of the road it goes under and maybe some trees falling across the road. Connie is making an "emergency survival" cake right now.

Well, I rest my case concerning my opinion of insurance companies in general.

In Fiji, after Cyclone Winston (Category 5) most people with cyclone insurance found the small print said "Only up to Category 3"....
Thinking of you guys tonight, hope it wimps out at the last minute.
