Last year I used Turbotax and did okay, I found it relativly easy adn I had no other ideas on where to go.
This year I plan to shop around a bit and one service I will be checking out is Prepare and E-File Online. Fast Refunds. TaxBrain.Com

..
I have a friend that does tax prep.. and if she were closer, I woudl use her company.. just because I think she is wonderful adn I woudl want to see her...

In the last couple of years, I have gone from using a private accountant, to a bookkeeper, to H&R and now on to doing my taxes myself. It is mostly because I kept getting this erie feeling that my tax prep person knew less than I did abot my taxes. (That is after things got so normal that I no longer needed an accountant to do them.. )

So go give these guys a chance. Prepare and E-File Online. Fast Refunds. TaxBrain.Com

other stuff
Well what else is there.. taxes and death..

actually there is a lot, some of you know I will be gone for the next week, I hope to have many pictures of where I am going, when I get back. Some with clothing on even!

I would do a review of my digital camera here, but I am borrowing one, cause mine is 10 years old and crap.

Anyone need a 10 year old sony mavica! This thing should be in the Smithsonian!
(mega pixles??? HAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Oh I kill me)

My travel tiem tomarrow is nearly 18 hours.. and I can;t sleep on planes.. so I kind of wish I had a way to blog while i was gone.. no sleep makes me rather strange, adn I always enjoy reading my stranger stuff, when I have had enough sleep.

-------

Technorati ratings.. is it just me, or have you noticed that nearly "overnight" two Japanees blogs have shot to the top of Technoratis popular list? How do you get 200,0000 links in little or no time? I wish I coudl read Japanees it would be an interesting study in how to get links.

------
I have to remember to tag this post with the words tax and taxes.. tiz the season you know.
.......

Go visit the fatman..


fatman
Why do I promote Fatman?
Is it because he is shapped roughly like I am?
Is it because he can leap tall buildings in a single bound?
Is it because when I stand next to him we look like a before and before picture?
NO.
It's cause is just fucking nutters!
So go see Fatman
DO IT NOW!

Well Fatster, you own me one slathering shamless promotion.
(Fucking crazy bugger!)

Pat Robertson, loon, hate monger, domestic terrorist.

Well, ain’t that special.
Pat Robertson speaks... and grabs headlines again!(Somone should shut him up)

Pat Robertson said that Ariel Sharon’s stroke may have been an act of divine vengeance for dividing Israel.. (or words to that effect)

Again, if we listen to Pat Robertson we are forced to ask the age old question. WWJK?
(Who Would Jesus Kill?)

It may be time that Pat Robertson is “Taken out” no not in the sense of the term that was meant by him when talking about the President of Venezuela, but taken out, in a nice white coat that ties at the wrists in the back. With pretty buckles that go from buns to nape of neck.

Yes friends and Neighbors, I believe that God in his Devine wisdom has sent Pat Robertson to us, to first entertain us, and second, show up how dangerous the mind of a religious fanatic can be. Regardless of the color or religon of that fanatic.

Yep, I said it.. fanatic.. we (Americans and the rest of the world) saw on September 11th, 2001 how a religious fanatic can be brought to murder, by leaders who are also fanatics. I do not know for sure, how many people follow Pat Robertson, or even how many take him seriously, but as a person of common sense I have to see the parallels between Pat and the Mullahs and others that are bringing a small piece of the worlds Muslim population to a religious fervor that can and has lead to the murder of innocents.

Pat Robertson, you are not much more than a domestic terrorist, with your words of hate.
Go burn in Hell




Darkness Falls.. a quick and simple review :Part of the Dueling (banjo) Review Series

Here we are, I finally got to torture Nix as he had tortured me, Yes, ladies and gentlemen I made Nix watch "Darkness Falls" and I am damn near giddy with schoolgirl like self pride.

To see his, well written but totally inaccurate review, click here

Sure Nix is a legend in the Movie Review Circles.. but that does not make him right all of the time.. and after reading this latest installment, I can;t wait to see him shout from the mountain tops the wonders of "Brokeback mountain".
But enough putting poor Nixie, in his well deserved place.. on with my review of a Horror Classic in the making..

Darkness Falls.

Shitbilly Blick reporting:
I am short on time more than anything, so I will make this short and sweet.
Darkness Falls.. Hated by horror fans everywhere, misunderstood, and tossed under the bus without justification.

Sure you will see a PG-13 movie here, no real blood bath anywhere to be found. ala Quintin Terantino
That is one of the things that makes this movie "great" okay different.
The premise is simple.. a woman, a kindly woman nicknamed "The Tooth Fairy" for her habbit of giving good little boys and girls a gold coin for their baby teeth.. is killed wrongly for a murder she did not commit.. and her spirit is pissed!

Now upon loosing your last baby tooth, she comes.. if you see her.. she kills you.

But light can save you, and in the end does save all the cast.. of very sexy people.. don't you love horror movies.. not an ugly one in the bunch.. and never an intelligent one either.. I love how women always fall when running from the bad thing.. and cats always jump out at you, and if you are not supposed to go into somthing like darkenss.. your ass most asuridly will .. Horror Movies.. Suspend Beliefe, Suspend Intelligence, and enjoy the ride.

It has been called slow in the middle.. okay maybe it is.. Evil Dead a classic was creepy shit from start to finish.. if you want creepy from start to finish and bad production value see Evil Dead. (Still a great in my book BTW)
But if you want a movie, that gives you time to think and care about the characters before they are killed horribly.. (or not) , with excellent production value and a really creepy sound effects...Watch Darkenss falls.

Okay why do I like this movie? Is it because Nix hates it? (Well that don't hurt) It really is because of the first time I watched it.. my date.. was scared shitless.. got good and close.. During the viewing.. and in the end hummed me to show her gratitude for my being there to protect her from the "Tooth Fairy".. how can you not like a movie that ends so happily?!?!?

Nix you just need a humjob!






In my book it rates up there with The Grudge and The Ring.

Nigerian scammer.. I hate these guys...

Well I got another Nigerian scammer letter..
Now remember to play nice.. I don;t want anybody going to sites that bomb you with smap and entering his email address... thomascole2020@yahoo.ie

nor woudl it be nice to set you a spam filter in outlook and have all of yo spam sent directly to him at thomascole2020@yahoo.ie

Nor should you, email him thomascole2020@yahoo.ie saying that you are an interested hampster rancher from a sea side ranch in Nevada

I sure am glad that I am keeping his email thomascole2020@yahoo.ie confidential.. aren;t you?

here is the copy of the email..
Funny he used a part of my alias as my first name in the subject.. priceless..
....
Good day to you,

I presume this letter will come to you as a surprise, but as things
unfold,
we will know each other better. I will start by introducing myself to
you.
My name is Thomas Cole a solicitor at law. I am writing in respect of a
foreigner who happens to be my client an oil merchant and contractor
(Mr.
Richard Burson Later) who perished in a plane crash of 31st October
1999[WITH EGYPTIAN AIRLINE 990] with other passengers aboard.

Since the demise of my client I personally have watched with keen
interest
to see the next of kin but all has proved abortive as no one has come
to
claim his funds of US$28.5m(Twenty Eight Million Five Hundred Thousand
United States Dollar) and all the relevant documents in the bank has no
record of any next of kin. On this note, I decided to seek for whom his
name
shall be used as his next of kin so i have contacted you to assist in
repatriating most especially, the money left behind by my client before
they
get confiscated or declared unserviceable by the bank where the huge
deposits were lodged. Particularly, the Equity Development Bank Plc
where
the deceased had an account valued at about Usd28.5 million dollars has
issued me a notice to provide the Next of kin, or have the account
confiscated.

I seek your consent to present you as the Next of kin of the deceased
since
you bear the same last name so that the proceeds of this account valued
at
Usd28.5 million dollars can be paid to you, as my clients Next of Kin,
and
then we can share the amount on a mutual agreed percentage.

All legal documents to back up your claim as the deceased Next of Kin
will
be provided.

All I require is your honest cooperation to enable us see this deal
through.
I guarantee that this will be executed under a legitimate arrangement
that
will protect you from any breach of the law and you should endeavor to
keep
it confidential.

Please get in touch with me, to enable us discuss further about this
transaction.Reply to this mailbox: thomascole2020@yahoo.ie

Best regards,

Thomas Cole.
