My Sister Paid Progressive Insurance to Defend Her Killer In Court
I’ve been sending out some impertinent tweets about Progressive Insurance lately, but I haven’t explained how they pissed me off. So I will do that here as succinctly as possible. There’s a general understanding that says, “insurance companies— oh they’re awful,” but since Progressive turned their shit hose on my late sister and my parents, I’ve learned some things that really surprised me.
I’ll try to cleave to the facts. On June 19, 2010, my sister was driving in Baltimore when her car was struck by another car and she was killed. The other driver had run a red light and hit my sister as she crossed the intersection on the green light.
This is terrible. Please consider sharing this with as many people as possible.
This really just boils it all down.

Hey errbody who wanted an .mp3 of “Semi-Charmed Call”! I’ve collected seven mashups from the past year (including that one) that I hadn’t posted download links for, given them a little remaster, and zipped them for your listening pleasure. Click the above image to grab Chambaland’s Gold EP, featuring:
Edge of Love (Lady Gaga vs. Daft Punk)
Semi Charmed Call (Carly Rae Jepsen vs. Third Eye Blind)
Phantoms in the Rain (Adele vs. Justice)
You Found Me (Taylor Swift vs. Rihanna/Calvin Harris)
Life 3X (Billy Joel vs. Chris Brown)
This Old Night (Lady Gaga vs. The Isley Brothers)
Map Story (Taylor Swift vs. Yeah Yeah Yeahs)jam jam jam
These are so so so so good.
Thanks, Dan!
Usually, theres nothing I care about less than kids singing covers of songs. But I have listened to this 100 times today. It is one of the prettiest things I’ve heard in a long time.
Please watch the final two episodes of “Best Friends Forever” tonight at 8pm on NBC. And spread the word!
