Noah’s Ark St Paul Travelers Insurance
(Average: 5.00 out of 5)
Loading ...The St Paul, property and liability insurance company previous to its merger with Travelers Insurance, added narrative to their byline, “Consider it done”, with the story of Noah’s ark in January 2003. St Paul Travelers was formed in 2004.
Noah applies the last wooden nails to the ark to the accompaniment of stirring music. He runs back to take a look at the completed ark. Now it’s time to stock the ark. Noah carries in a young donkey, only to be kicked in thanks. He jumps out of trees to catch the two giraffes. As he drags animals up the ramp a waiting alligator lays its claim on dinner. Catching birds is no easy task. Eagles fly from tree to tree and ostriches take Noah for fast rides around the plains. Noah has to think hard when it comes to getting the elephants through the front door.
When Noah finally catches a gecko by the tail, he’s left holding only the tail. To lure the beasts of prey into the ark, Noah runs around with legs of meat around his neck. Finally, as the rains start up, Noah’s resting in the ark. Without thinking he swats a mosquito on his neck. Faithful man that he is, he launches out into the storm to find its replacement.
The super: “No one ever said keeping a promise was easy. One company works hard to come through. The St Paul.”.
