For confirmation, GIYF. yep. hung is for meat, curtains and sexual organs, hanged is for suicides and murderers. -- it should be clear by now to everyone that activist environmentalism (or environmental activism) is becoming a general ideology about humans, about their freedom, about the relationship between the individual and the state, and about the manipulation of people under the guise of a 'noble' idea. It is not an honest pursuit of 'sustainable development,' a matter of elementary environmental protection, or a search for rational mechanisms designed to achieve a healthy environment. Yet things do occur that make you shake your head and remind yourself that you live neither in Joseph Stalins Communist era, nor in the Orwellian utopia of 1984. Vaclav Klaus |

Hanged, as a past tense and a past participle of hang, is used in the sense of to put to death by hanging, as in Frontier courts hanged many a prisoner after a summary trial https://www.englishrules.com/writing...anged-or-hung/ |

As I'm sure I have said here before, for me the stock answer on (relatively) small item insurance is quite simple. The provider wants to sell cover on which they can turn a profit. Overall, therefore, they pay out less than they charge, and on average, so long as you can stand the potential loss, you are better off putting your money in a savings account and taking the chance. When cold called by providers, I sometimes attempt to explain this simple concept, and am surprised how few appreciate the basic maths. I only insure things I couldn't afford to replace. (House) I don't even insure the house. Because its all electric and almost entirely concrete, steel, glass, quarry tiles, no curtains leather armchairs etc, its never going to burn down, and since I built it from scratch on a bare block of land, I can fix whatever say get damaged by one of the trees etc if I need to for a lot less than insurance every year would have cost me. Or I legally have to. (Car) I did insure the latest new car for the first year, because the insurance was insanely cheap, just $100 and we have lots of illegal fruit pickers etc here who have no assets at all and would just **** off somewhere else if they wiped out the new car. I suppose tin shacks are pretty cheap. wagga wagga wonder if he knows Bill Kerr ? .... Nope. he is dead now anyway .... Never stopped you necrophiliacs. you are confusing me with Jim....Jimmy savelle ...... Nope, we have the videos on youtube is nope your favourite word .... Nope, dope. and don't say nope or yep ...... Nope, yep, dope. I told you not to ........ You have always been, and always will be, completely and utterly irrelevant. What you might or might have told in spades, dope. |

FWIW - I just had a renewal through from Quotemehappy (used them for the
first time last year) and with no changes it's 12% / £25 cheaper than last year and nearly £30 cheaper than the best the meerkat / GoCompare can find. -- Reentrant |
