Lobsters for Lent: We all must sacrifice

Lobsters for Lent is a sacrifice we all make

with Kelly P. Kissel | Metro editor

Good afternoon. Here are some of our top headlines:

The insurance game

State lawmakers are considering how to end what's described as a "churn" of adjusters among insurance companies following natural disasters. Legislators say a primary complaint they hear about insurance companies is that multiple adjusters are being used to assess damage, and that each time a new one starts, the claims process essentially starts anew.

A Lake Charles lawmaker said he heard from someone who was on his 13th adjuster after a hurricane.

Crazy crimes alleged

A Mississippi law officer says a group of Louisiana vandals crossed into his county and caused about $1 million in damage. Damaged property includes barns and 18-wheelers. James Finn tracks the story.

Lobster for Lent. What sacrifice?

I had a priest in Pennsylvania who wasn't very keen on the idea of lobster for Lent. I think of him every time I see a story about lobster for Lent, like this one.

Thanks for stopping in. Have a great weekend.
