Most people is pretty quiet right about now. Me, I see a stiff -- one I didn't have to kill myself -- I just get, the urge to, you know, do stuff. Like work out, run around, maybe get some trim if there's a willin' woman about... not that I get flush from corpses or anything. I ain't crazy.

Tivo ques. I am trying to figure out how to get my programs off my current series 2 tivo before firing up my new one. Wireless connecting to my network failed b/c my airport router won't talk to my wireless adaptor with the tivo, some usb g error. To connect with wire to my airport, I would need a usb to usb connector which do not exist. Ideas?

Bills you probably don't need to save for more than the quarter. I keep bank statements for as long as I do my check stubs. And 2 yrs. returns are what you'd need to get a house-which is basically what I base my timelines on.

Hee. That's my friend Josh.

He's - as the kids these days say - hella cute.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

The IRS has three years to audit you from the date of your return, so keep them for at least as long.

Wow, I've been keeping 7 years' worth of tax returns. (Mind you, I don't itemize.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Awesome. I'm going to shred some bank statements right now!

Since bank statements and bills are all digitized and available online now, is there really any need to keep them at all? You can get them if you need them, right? RIGHT???!!!

In order to get my current job, I had to produce tax returns from about 7 years ago. I am just saying.

Yeah, I don't get them in paper format at all anymore. (Bank statements, I mean.)

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I'm pretty sure the IRS recommends 7 years for stuff like tax returns. I am far too paranoid to get rid of any tax returns. Or bills, really. We have too much paper.
