I'm not putting any money in anymore -- these are all from previous jobs. I just haven't gotten around to consolidating them. Thanks, everybody! I guess I AM done with my taxes.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Emily, listen to what Ginger said re IRAs -- with 403b contributions, there's less taxable income on your W2 to begin with. But for IRAs, you should report. And I should avoid financial questions before coffee.

I am doing an empty cycle on my new washing machine. Yay.

Also, I got a letter from my oil company saying that they are reducing my monthly payments on my budget plan from $300/month to $70/month for the rest of my payment year. That's how off they were estimating oil prices.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Can I get some ticket-fu this morning? Mets tickets for an exhibition game at their new stadium on my BIRTHDAY go on sale at 10:00am.

Because books.

Major ticket-fu, Tom! I went to an exhibition game on my birthday once, and it was one of my best birthdays ever.

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

Major ticket-fu, Tom!
