To the funny farm... Haahaa hoho heehee.
To the funny farm... Haahaa hoho heehee. Finally getting a grip on the tax forms. AMT comes back to bite my rear end again. No, I don't have to pay any. But once again I'm sitting on a huge carryover credit that I should be able to apply to my taxes and not pay any. But nooo... I didn't make enough money to take the credit. But I made enough to pay taxes. Oh, I can keep it until next year. Great. Now I have to go analyze every line and figure out if there's a missing or wrong line number like last year. Otherwise the government is going to keep oh about 40 grand until I'm qualified to use it. Might be a long time before I make enough money to use the credit. What's the point of having a tax credit if you can't use it as a credit on your taxes? What a stupid system.

TechnoratiWe may not be able to persuade Hindus that Jesus and not Vishnu should
govern their spiritual horizon, nor Moslems that Lord Buddha is at the
center of their spiritual universe, nor Hebrews that Mohammed is a major
prohpet, nor Christians that Shinto best expresses their spiritual
concerns, to say nothing of the fact that we may not be able to get
Christians to agree among themselves about their relationship to God.
But all will agree on a proposition that they possess profound spiritual
resources. If, in addition, we can get them to accept the further
proposition that whatever form the Deity may have in their own theology,
the Deity is not only external, but internal and acts through them, and
they themselves give proof or disproof of the Deity in what they do and
think; if this further proposition can be accepted, then we come that
much closer to a truly religious situation on earth.
