Chapter 42

To briefly digress from higher ed web development:

I’m getting married in a week.  (Thanks, I’m excited too!)  We have to get wedding insurance— something I’d never heard of— for our weekend-long wedding in the wilds of northern California.

Here is the list of exclusions in our policy:

Exclusions: Claims by Athletic Participants, War, Terrorism, Expected or Intended Injury, Sexual Abuse/Molestation, Asbestos, Nuclear Energy, Total Pollution, Fungi or Bacteria, Aircraft or Watercraft, Pyrotechnics, Employment Related Practices, Communicable Disease (Hepatitis, TSE, HIV, HTLV, or AIDS) Collapse of Temporary Structure, Lead Liability, Professional Liability, Use of Trampolines, Cheerleading Pyramids, Sale/Manufacture/Distribution of Athletic Equipment, Use of Saunas or Tanning Devices, Polo, Skin & Scuba Diving, Squash, Downhill Snow Skiing, Water Skiing, Whitewater Rafting, Bungee Jumping, Mountain Climbing, Rock Climbing, Motorsports, Rodeo or any Equestrian Related Sports, Waterslides, Ballooning, Parachute Jumping, Luge, Tobogganing, Gymnastics, All Motor Sports, Violation of Telephone Consumer Protection Act or CAN-SPAM Act.

How can we be expected to have any fun at all if we can’t play squash or violate the CAN-SPAM act?
