I have homeowners and auto with them. Haven't really shopped around with regards to price, so I can't comment there. However, I can say that their customer service is top notch. Have only had to file claims twice.... basically one phone call each time...no hassle at all.

Never had a single problem, nor has my father who has used them for decades. Extremely easy to deal with. I have insurance (homeowners/auto) with them. Dad has got insurance and banking.

Thanks for the info everyone. The specific partnership that I was refering to was with Atlas. Seems like they might be a little less shady, but the previously given advice is well noted.

Anybody have any experience investing in these? Not buying stock, actually investing/buying into partnerships.....

Something like this..

Mexican - Superior Grill



Went there this summer and did not enjoy. I was disappointed because I had heard good things from several people.


Most people that recommend Superior do so because it was a good place to get a drink during happy hour, especially if you were looking to hook up. At least it was that way when I was in Shreveport in the late 90's thru 2003. I was never impressed with the food. There was a place just next to Superior named BellaFresca or something similat that had good modern Italian-like food. Not sure if it is still there.

No problem, Colonel misinformed.

Its doctors trying to get labor on the cheap from unqualified individuals!


Actually, try again. Most actually oppose this. My wife is an Anesthesiologist and I am Pulmonary-Critical Care. It isn't doctors who initiate this. However, you are correct in the fact that some do try to take advantage of the situation once it exists.

Doctors are beefing because they are getting paid well but these nurses have done more in 8 years than any MD coming out of school. FACT


Yeah, but that's not really a head to head comparison is it?. While a med student becomes a "doctor" the day that they graduate from med school, their training is far from complete. They then are looking at another 3-8 years depending upon speciality. (4 more years for Anesthesiology and even more is an anesthesia subspeciality).
