Dear Hayden Boyett,

It’s the sum of all fears. The number you’ve dreaded for 39 years.

You watched first your sister, then your friends cross the veil from virile young womanhood to old-lady hell. So now that it’s your turn do not fret nor despair! Pull up that spandex! Throw some dye in your hair!

Embrace nomber 40 as a coming-of-age, a fantastic new chapter, so get set - turn the page!

By your loving sister - Kara “the poet don’tcha know it” Erickson

Rabalais is a Farm Bureau agent and he spoke to the club about the high automobile insurance rates in Louisiana and also about the Louisiana Citizens Plan Assessment.

Louisiana auto insurance rates are the 7th highest in the nation and have been a frequent contender for the top spot. The cause of high auto insurance rates is policy decisions made by the Louisiana lawmakers (the Legislature).
