No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

OK, two separate questions:

1) How long do I need to keep bills for? My current method of filing bills (credit card, utility, etc) after payment is...tossing them in a big milk crate. I'd like to organize them more than that, but do I keep them for a year? Three years? Seven? Does it change if I'm using the utility bills as part of my home-office deduction?

2) I know we must, but...who here does website design? I am completely fed up with the person supposedly working on my drag organization's website (impossible to get a hold of, hasn't made any changes (like taking down my LEGAL NAME) after multiple requests, etc). And would be willing to pay out of my pocket for a better website. Who here could I hire?

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

meara, I think Ginger and amyth are doing websites. I am deeply stupid right now, so I may be pulling this out of my butt.

Our wings are not tired.

I think you mean Amych.

Deeply.

Stupid.

I typed amych first, then backtracked.

Mea culpa.

As Erin said, I do websites.

There's no reason to keep utility bills unless you're going to use them to show to a prospective buyer. Mine are mostly electronic anyway.

Clark Howard says the two things to keep forever are tax-related things and things that show you paid something off.

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

What Ginger said, from "I do websites" on.

Well, I figured utility bills might go under "tax related" since I do use part of that as my home office deduction, I think. (I vaguely remember, from doing my taxes this year...)

So is a year sufficient, for other things, then?

As I understand it, except for evidence that you paid off a major purchase.

I need to consolidate years of random filing. I'll put it on the list.

I do some, TB, but I don't have the latest software.
