who's the real idot here?

This morning I came across this line in the book I was reading:

And the idiot Carter? "Tis a sentence worse than death merely to be associated with the Carter name, " Andre muttered.

Hmm... into what sort of family did I marry? Take comfort, the book was not written about Jim's family, or any other specific carter family. It is fiction, after all.

However, here is a chance for redemption. While connected with the idiocy, the Carter name is not the source of it:









Yes, the company sent a life insurance offer to a man who has been dead for 10 years. That's some "second chance" they're offering!
