Doesn't your Illiad manual give instructions on how to deal with this intruder?

Why would angels need life insurance? Aren't they immortal?

You have a point. Ok, how about collision insurance?

Okay, collision insurance. But how will they fare under Obama's health insurance plan?

Aren't wings covered because they can be broken, but halos not insurable because they fall under the category of "non-visible apparatus" ?

But if wings and halos are not covered under the government plan, wouldn't they be covered by the angels' employer and handled through the Department of Seraphic Resources?

But isn't the Department of Seraphic Resources under the jurisdiction of the Bureau of Cherubic Services?

You think it's complicated? Have you spoken to the dozens of angels waiting in line to apply for flying permits?

Is it true that a shocking number of angels have not been properly trained in emergencies caused by icing on the wings?

What kind of emergencies? Do you mean to say that there are angels who have crash-landed? Why was this not reported in the media? Do you smell a cover up?

Instead of smelling a cover up, could we cover a smell up?

What's a smell up? Is that like a barrel of rotting fish or something?

Couldn't it be a pile of trashy manuscripts?
