This girl at school? She told me that gelatin is made from ground-up cow's feet and that every time you eat Jell-O there's some cow out there limping around without any feet. But I told her that I'm sure the cow is dead before they cut its feet off, right?

I dont' think I ever GOT a 1099-INT from BofA. But I figure I have less interest from them (since it's like, $20) than from ING (who let me print it off from online). So I'm just going without. (Edit; I took the interest amount from my statements, which I could get online, and in the December and January ones, it says how much for the year, as well as for the statement)

I have a flight that leaves at 6AM tomorrow. Which means I have to leave my house by...4:30 at the latest? I am SO not loving this...but did manage to just snag an exit row when I printed my boarding pass.

OTOH, my work computer will not let me run Firefox (WTF?) so I'm contemplating bringing both it AND my regular laptop. Which would be a pain, but I HATE IE6...

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I am in favor of a fully intact Jilli.

I couldn't get one of my student loan interest statements because they shut off the PIN if you don't use it for several months. And it takes 2-3 business days to get a new one. I figure it wouldn't save me more than $10 so I'm proceeding without it.

I didn't get one either, meara. But you don't have to declare if it was under $10, so I didn't bother with it either.

Oh, mine was definitely more than $10, because I keep more in there than I should (I should move a heck of a lot more over to the ING account). But I already had to do the 1040A because of the ING amount, so...

I wonder if their cutoff is $20 or something. Because I got one from BofA. My interest was only around $26.

Why aren't you people doing your taxes online? I changed jobs, bought a house, and cashed out a 401k this year and my taxes still didn't take 20 mintues.

Seriously? They must just hate me. Or it got lost in the mail. Ah well, too late to get one now...

I used TaxCut. It's what I used last year, too; it's always given me the best results.

The last time I tried TurboTax it took much longer than with paper and pen. I also have more than a dozen employers.

I will be paying my IL taxes with check number 666. This amuses me.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

Random research question of the night:

Suppose you wanted to render someone unconscious for an hour or two, but would prefer not to kill him or permanently damage his brain. What part of his head do you club him over--top, side, back of head, forehead?
