When some students from USC were off near Catalina Island celebrating Sea Serpent Day on August 7th, nobody expected their small boat to be capsized by what may have been a genuine sea serpent. A frantic call on their cell to a California Health Insurance agent was made just in time.<\/p>\n
It had seemed like a lark. The four dorm buddies had just learned on the Internet that TODAY, August 7th \u2013 was National Sea Serpent Day. \u201cThat\u2019s crazy,\u201d said Jim Brewer, an astute but fun-loving 22-year-old, \u201cWho ever heard of a sea serpent in southern California waters?\u201d Sitting with Jim in his room were Mike, Dave, and Bill, surnamed Smith, Doe, and Jones respectively, all majors in marine sciences, and all had a good laugh. Something else they all had in common were health insurance policies provided by a California Health Insurance agent \u2013 which was to prove fortuitous.<\/p>\n
