nevermind my last reply, eq() works great, I just forgot to change my
code... here is the code snipet that works (for future reference)

jQuery.get("http://www.online-health-insurance.apollobackstage.com/
includes/seniorFreeQuoteBody.php", function(data){
                                        $("body#seniors #text 
p:eq(2)").after(data);
                                },"text");
