    Fire

    down here the local Chase bank stopped renting safety deposit boxes due to lack of lock smiths who can drill and replace locks (or so they said) So I bought a fire safety box for those important docs and put it in a corner of the garage I figured would be the least harmed in a fire.

    BH No problem, unfortunately my wife passed away almost 5 years ago. I'm still a bit mad at her because she was 10 years younger and was supposed to take care of me when I became a doddering old fool.
