Don't do it, Steph. That's how they suck people in, with the promise of science.
I just finished reading the Kluwe letter.
I already know what I'm gonna call her. Got a name all picked out...

So he was only with the Raiders for the pre-season? That's too bad, I just assumed they'd keep him, although the other punter they were trying out also looked good.
I believe he's already published, Sophia.

Yep. Bill Nye. I wonder what he gets out of doing this? He's not going to change the mind of anyone who is already supportive of the Creation Museum.

Probably he gets crazy fangirls like me to show up and scream like it's a Beatles concert.
No, seriously, I've had a crush on him for at least 20 years.

So, yeah, I have revised my resume: it's down to two pages, it's now something called a semi-functional resume, where the chronological order is still broken up by functional descriptions.
Would anyone have time to give it a quick look over?

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I'm thinking we will buy a house this year, which means itemizing deductions next year. Anyone have a quick list of things to keep receipts for? I'm already thinking medical expenses and expenses for work.

Our wings are not tired.
The medical and work expenses only kick in as deductions if they're VERY pricey (I've never been able to deduct either except when I was a freelancer briefly) because they need to go higher than a certain percentage of your income - and even then, only the amount above that percentage is a deduction.
But yes on charity donations - every dollar counts right from the get go. Good luck on the house buying!
