I'm just passing this along from a humor list. True or not? Just a
quick chuckle. Have a great weekend... Something heard on the radio: A
North Carolina man, having bought several expensive cigars, insured them
against... get this... fire. After he had smoked them, he then decided
that he had a claim against the insurance company and filed. The insurance
company refused to pay, citing the obvious reason that the man had consumed
the cigar normally. The man sued. The judge, stated that since the company
had insured the cigars against fire, they were obligated to pay. After
the man accepted payment for his claim, the company then had him arrested
for... arson.
