The meaning of "free" is _________.

Things have been quiet on this homefront. The weekend was uneventful, and for that, we were all glad. The guest bedroom wall has dried (finally), and the carpet doesn't seem so mushy. As for the guest bathroom, well, that's another story.

The pet had Roto-Rooter come out to provide a free estimate, wanting a second opinion on the matter at paw. Apparently, the word 'free' in some circles means "ten minutes of doing everything your pet already tried". The pet was not too happy so she ended up calling a third plumber.

They never got back with her to schedule an appointment.

We've just finished rewatching Twin Peaks so we were more than a bit concerned when the insurance adjuster called us yesterday afternoon and introduced himself as Bob. If Bob the adjuster ends up being anything like Bob the demonic killer, I think things will take a turn for the highly interesting. One can only hope.

Looking forward to meeting Bob,

I can only hope that as Bob is a common name, it will be a different Bob.

Did I tell you that my name is Bob? I'm not an insurance adjuster or a demonic killer. I'm a vet.

We hope your pet finds someone to help with the plumbing problem. Is his name Billy Bob, Jim Bob, Bobby Joe.....
