Steelers

I just want to say I'm really against this:



Article: http://www.wpxi.com/news/4690146/detail.html# (Family props up 55 year old corpse to pretend corpse is drinking beer and watching Steelers game in fake living room at funeral home).

That is all.

Wait. I thought I saw him respond! Are you sure he's dead? Someone call Frist, quick!

Tasteless. Kennedy does that with Byrd, and now people think just anyone can pull it off.

Rich I tells ya, rich!
Depends on what you doing. Let's say I put $50K down on my house in Seattle 4 years ago. My equity is now $300K. House is 2700SFT/panoramic water, city and mountain view on 7000 sft lot. My mortgage payment is approx $2500. In the same 4 year period I have tripled my dependents.

I sell, take the $300K, move over to an island in the Puget sound where my ferry commute will be no more than my drive in Seattle and the public schools are good enough that I can avoid the 40K/year in private school tuition for the dependents. I can now buy a 4000 plus sft waterfront home with 3-5 acres and my total monthly outflow will be no more than it is now, but without the "houserich" equity appreciation I would never be able to pull off the second purchase.

You tell me, am I better off or not.

That's an interesting way of referring to graduation from law school.

You can claim socks as dependents?

Only if they prove viable.

I guess he's available, because Jeb has finally thrown in the towel.

Surprisingly, on a Friday.

Perhaps you should call him and ask.

Only as a taxpayer. Thank god the AMT will keep you in check.

Less, on the other hand, is quite worried that your spawn will take his seat at the WSOP.

One thing that's never been satisfactorily explained for my liking is Bush's failure to show up for National Guard duty in 1972-73. I don't believe that Bush was ever formally on any Defense Department AWOL lists but as far as I am concerned he has never fully explained his inability to document being on post. Enquiring minds and all that.

So far it has not. I think i would just use the manual override on TurboTax and dare them to audit me. I always have the second amendment as my trump card.
