Tales of the Jumping Moose is alive!



What is this?
This is a site devoted to shortcuts through modern day life. I have a lot of tips.

Why is the Jumping Moose the mascot, the symbol of our site? Years back, a friend told me this great story that he had to relate to an insurance adjuster:

"He was driving down the road one day. A moose jumped in front of the path of his truck and totaled it."

"The moose jumped?" the insurance adjuster asked.

"Yes"

"They you're totally covered. Had the moose walked onto the road, you would be at fault. When the moose jumped it became a flying object and drivers are not responsible for impacts of flying objects that strike their vehicles."

Because that moose was airborne a second before the accident and a second after, the driver got a mulligan. Our world is full arbitrary, stupid technicalities. People who make the most of those technicalities get to slide through life. Why shouldn't you? This blog is devoted to all of life's shortcuts.
