We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

When you scratch the front of the stamps, it smells of the popular chinese dish and when the back of the stamp is licked it tastes of the dish too.

"The strawberries taste like strawberries! The snozzberries taste like snozzberries!!"

"Whoever heard of a snozzberry?"

"We are the music makers. And we are the dreamers of dreams."

Now tagless for your comfort.

Is ita about? Some guy was hotlinking to images on some other site. When the other site took down the images, the guy doing the hotlinking got all mad and said he might sue.

What. A. Moron. I hope his lawyer has better grammar and spelling.

I'm ashamed to admit I also had a dog named Buffy when I was in grade school. But he was a male cocker spaniel.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Awwww, poor idiot...

Coding and Sleeping

US forces raid the Iranian embassy in Northern Iraq, Bush is sending 21,000 more troops into the Mess o' Potamia, against the will of the American public, we're bombing Somalia and what's headline news on CNN?

David Beckham is coming to America.

So you're thinking that the Beckham news should have been in a "breaking news" red banner?

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Wow. Just wow. The sheer cluelessness is overwhelming.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

This really amuses me. I was looking on the IRS's Web site for tax info (independent contractor, etc.), and it has a very long list of what is considered "income" and, further, whether that income is taxable or not.

It includes -- I shit you not -- the following, which I have lifted verbatim from the Web site:

Bribes. If you receive a bribe, include it in your income.

Found property. If you find and keep property that does not belong to you that has been lost or abandoned (treasure-trove), it is taxable to you at its fair market value in the first year it is your undisputed possession.

Illegal income. Illegal income, such as money from dealing illegal drugs, must be included in your income on Form 1040, line 21, or on Schedule C or Schedule C-EZ (Form 1040) if from your self-employment activity.

Kickbacks. You must include kickbacks, side commissions, push money, or similar payments you receive in your income on Form 1040, line 21, or on Schedule C or Schedule C-EZ (Form 1040) if from your self-employment activity.

Stolen property. If you steal property, you must report its fair market value in your income in the year you steal it unless in the same year, you return it to its rightful owner.

Well, that takes care of all *my* questions....

I'm sure there are people stupid enough to list their incomse thus and get picked up with a quick query to the database.

And for those that don't report, go to jail for tax evasion when that is all the gov't can get them for... Damned if you do, damned if you don't.

I figure any tax return with *anything* on line 21 is going to get flagged, if for no other reason than to mock the people stupid enough to report stolen property as income.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I'm sure there are people stupid enough to list their incomse thus and get picked up with a quick query to the database.

Actually, these are just intended to provide police and prosecutors additional ways of charging people for crimes. Like with Al Capone, it might be easier to charge someone with tax evasion than with the actual crime....

x-posty with Cass....
