[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
Java, me too.
Speaking of: omnis, your sister was wonderfully helpful on my tax question (more helpful, responsive, and informative than my uncle's accountant, whom I also consulted)! Thanks a lot for putting me in touch with her; I feel a lot more confident about what's going on, and it should all get sorted out with minimal hassle (I may end up owing nothing if the state tax refund tax isn't enough for them to care).
Glad to help. And if I tell my sister this, it will only make her head swell, and reinforce her smugness about an EA and CPA.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
I once read a novelization of the life of Jesus that essentially described the miracle of the loaves and fishes as Jesus inspiring everyone in the crowd to share what they had brought with those who did not have much. It is a privilege to be part of a miracle like that, no matter which way things flow.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Yes you can, Aims.

I was about to say, don't make me break out the Bible verses. But Andi has it covered.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
And if I tell my sister this, it will only make her head swell, and reinforce her smugness about an EA and CPA.
Seriously. I sent her no forms at all, and within a few days, she sent me a cogent explanation of what was going on and what I should do AND found a really helpful E-TRADE FAQ that I had been unable to find. She even offered to help me further if I called her, but I didn't want to take up more of her time.
I sent my uncle's accountant my actual tax returns, followed by some other relevant forms to review (based on my conversation with your sister), and I received absolutely no response for almost a week, at which point I called him to confirm he'd gotten my e-mails and he was like, yeah, yeah, that sounds right, let me review everything more thoroughly and I'll call you tomorrow and tell you what you need to do. Except he didn't. So I called the IRS, and they were very clear and helpful too, so I let him know what they said to do, and he was like, yeah, that sounds right. Good job, man.
