      @Around here, yes, that is why you have to have insurance on everything you own. People here is always biteing off each other. You have a house, they want to outshine yours and build a bigger one, you have a car, they want a better one than yours and the list goes on and on. LOL, my husband said, if the biters want to put themselves in unnessary debt by being jealous of what others have then so be it.
