Are you aware of the risks of living?

I'm curious as to why Job's Daughters (a masonic group for teenage girls) is named as such. Job's daughters sat around eating and drinking with their brothers, and were killed when their house collapsed on them in a windstorm during one of their feasts.
This just seems odd to me. My roommate's explanation is that there's not really any other groups of girls listed in Bible. Noah's daughters would certainly be worse role models.
That had no relevance on anything whatsoever, except that I'm feeling slightly akin to Job at the moment myself. As you may imagine, the rest is likely to be very whiny. Don't read it if you don't want to read whiny stuff, or I'll have no sympathy for you if you complain.
