Well with all the rain and flooding we've been getting in Chicago, I lost a lot of my SW books. They were stored in my parents basement. My mom called and said they got over a foot of water in the basement. I went over there the next day (cause I was working nights) and noticed the horrific scene. I had a lot of good friends in those books. I had them in one of those storage bins, but apparently, that doesn't do much against that much water.

Bummer Jake. Hopefully insurance will help your parents with their basement repairs.

That sucks. I know there has been flooding issues here in MI, but further north.

To make matters worse. No, Insurance won't help my parents.

Why? You ask.

Because for some unknown reason, my brother, weather it be he was drunk or just an idiot or some other reason
Turned off the SumpPump.
Good luck trying to sell that to insurance companies.

That sucks, sorry to hear that!

I had that happen at my dad's house growing up, I was in the basement room and would wake up occasionally to a puddle of water under my bed. After I moved out it evidently got worse and destroyed a majority of my childhood books and toys.
