For those who are into true crime stories, they're exhuming 100-year-old graves that are associated with a female serial killer nicknamed "Lady Bluebeard."

All the big aspects of true crime tales: female serial killer luring men with suggestive letters and lonely hearts ads, possibly realizes the jig is up and torches her home with what might be a switched body (beheaded) inside purporting to be her. One hundred years later, they exhume "her" body to do a DNA test comparing it to saliva from one of her luring letters, only to find children's bones mixed with the woman's body, leading investigators to wonder if she also killed children.

Heyyyy! I just did the calculator, looks like I get $91 in stimulus! I thought I wasn't getting anything! I'm....not all that excited really. Especially because I had to pay $200 in taxes, and paid by check, so I get my $91 in July. Becuase my SSN ends in 95. Mmmhmmm. Whooooopeee.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

I did have to pay this year,

Q. I chose direct debit to pay my tax bill. Will my stimulus payment be direct deposited to the same account?

A. No, the account information used for an incoming direct debit payment to the IRS cannot be used as the account information for the direct deposit of the stimulus payment. People who choose direct debit to pay a balance due will receive their stimulus payments by paper check through the mail. [Updated 3/3/08]

Another good [link] :

Many people don't know that:

"In general, the payment schedule only applies if your return was received and the IRS finished processing it before April 15. If you filed your return on time, but close to the April 15 deadline, the IRS may not have finished processing it before April 15.

"Processing times for tax returns and stimulus payments vary. If you are getting a regular income-tax refund, the IRS will send you that refund first. Normally, your stimulus payment will follow one to two weeks later."

and

"Taxpayers...[who had] return preparation fees deducted from their refunds, cannot receive their stimulus payments by direct deposit and instead will get paper checks based on the paper check distribution schedule."

Dunno if any of that applies to you, Allyson.
