According to the UPI, Bill Gates actually gets his own special computer at the IRS to track his tax returns.
My taxes are pretty simple. I used to use H&R Block, but I just got disgusted with paying them to answer step by step questions in a program. Since I’ve bought a house 2 years ago I started using turboTax. It’s actually quite thorough. It asks pretty pointed and detailed questions. Doctor visits Vs. Perscriptions. It also clues you in on additional deductions, as well as warns you of some implications. It includes video help links and IRS links content specific.
You can make a PDF of your return, and of course electronically file. Pretty simple.
How do you prepare your taxes?

Theres been a recent stink here in WI about war protestors making a stand at the funerals of soldiers. I can’t even beleive this has even come up as a topic. Of course we now have to spend our valuable time in our democratic process to sign laws against this??
IMHO this is rediculous. Those against or for the actions in Iraq have the absolute freedom to express your own opinions on this any time. Thats one of the things that makes our country great.
But lets have some taste here. At a soldiers funeral? These soldiers are only following orders. They have no choice when where or how they surrender their lives for us to have the right to give our opinions freely! I think if your going to do that, just move. If it’s so aweful for you go find yourself a communist country to live in and then see how far your protests will go.
These thoughts were inspired by a former Navy Petty Officer’s blog.
Feel free to stop in and comment!

Jeremy Hermanns creator of Blogebrity writes about a scarey incident while riding an Alaskan flight. Apparently a weakened part of the fueslage caused by a careless groundcrew member blew a hole in it…
The worst part for me was the fact that my Fiancee and I were 4 rows apart and she was closer to the rear of the plane where the loud ‘bang’ and Engine noise was coming from
Along with the story are pictures from his Treo Cell phone. Could you imagine??
