Date: 2007-11-07, 5:23AM PST I met you at the bar last night, and we hit it off. Ya we were both a little buzzed, but you seemed as into me as I was into you. Things got to things, we made out a bit, and you ended up going home with me on the back of my motorcycle, which was awesome because that doesn't usually happen to me. I luckily had the extra helmet with me and let you wear my bike jacket while suffering the cold on the way home. I was feeling pretty happy and lucky to say the least. This is where things got crazy. I don't know if you slipped, or thought I was taking you home to kill you, or if your're just plain crazy and had a change of heart, but all of a sudden you let go of me MID-TURN and went flying into the bushes at about 10-15mph near the park by my house. I was so freaked out!!! when I looked back to see you fumbling in the bushes I could only PRAY TO GOD that you didn't hit the asphalt or something worse. I really thought you must have been hurt at least a bit, but as I turned around to come check on you, you took off into the unlit park running full speed with my helmet and jacket still on! I parked my bike and looked for you for over 2 hours calling your name until I was so cold I had to go home or risk freezing to death. WTF Im sorry for what happened and I really hope your're ok, really I do, but seriously WTF. Running into a forested park in the middle of the night like that....I really can't begin to guess what you were thinking, and you weren't that drunk, but i suppose my "crazy-bitch o' meter" wasn't working at the bar that night, and from the speed you took off I can only surmise that your're not that hurt. I would like my expensive bike gear back though, I hope it kept you warm during your psychotic episode, but it IS mine and I kinda need it to get around in the winter. If you could return it to the bar for me, check in with your shrink, and promise to never come near me again that would be great, cause you scared the #*$% outta me and are costing me alot of money. Sincerely,
Very cold/poor motorcycle rider who will never let women near his bike again. * Location: Seattle

13.5 million impacted by AMT patch |

On December 27, the IRS announced that despite recent changes to the Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT) law, the vast majority of taxpayers can begin filing in mid-January. Unfortunately, as many as 13.5 million may have to wait as the IRS reprograms its systems to account for the new law. The individual AMT laws, intended in 1969 to affect only the wealthy, have not been adjusted to account for inflation. As a result, the AMT potentially affects more taxpayers each year. To remedy this, Congress has passed a patch for the last several years to minimize the effect of the AMT. However, this year's patch was late enough in the season that it will affect the IRS's readiness to process tax returns and pay refunds. Although the IRS is asking certain taxpayers to wait until February 11th to file, H&R Block customers can file now - depending on your tax situation, we will hold your return securely and file them automatically when the IRS is ready. Taxpayers who use the following forms will be affected:
Form 8863, Education Credits
Form 5695, Residential Energy Credits
Schedule 2, Form 1040A, Child and Dependent Care Expenses
Form 8396, Mortgage Interest Credit
Form 8859, District of Columbia First-Time Homebuyer Credit All other e-file and paper returns will be accepted starting as scheduled in January. The IRS urges affected taxpayers to file electronically in order to reduce wait times for their refunds. Taxpayers who e-file and use the direct deposit option get refunds in as little as 10 days, while paper returns take four to six weeks.
Wont hurt me... Does it you? 13.5 million impacted by AMT patch |

In addition, the information on the laptops was not encrypted.
See this is what gets me is that they "The City of Nashville" and the state for that matter got done in the butt by nobody but (no pun) their own stupidity. Personal information should have been protected, but was not. The lack of physical security should have not been an issue. All i see is the press talking about the lack of physical security. Someone needs to loose their job, period. The IT people in Nashville are really that incompetent? Being 'Proactive' Could Have Lessened Election Theft Risk |

The election is over, the results are now known.
The will of the people has clearly been shown.
We should show by our thoughts and our words and our deeds
That unity's just what our country now needs.
Let's all get together.
Let bitterness pass.
I'll hug your elephant.
You kiss my ass!
Still stands for 2008 I think... :P This calls for my favorite political poem... |
