I had sales people come to my door last night. I was just getting in the shower. I told them I had very little time. Two came in and demostrated. The woman was very understand and went through it fast. When they were getting ready to leave the big boss came in. I am assuming to close the deal. He went throught the demo all over again. I kept telling him I have been through it already. Three hours later they were leaving!! She apologized. It seems like an amazing vacuum, but a lot of work. In addition to the work it was going to cost me 1900.00! I hear they Dyson (misspelled I am sure) is good. Does anyone know anything about the Dyson?

help Iraq and make them a democratic country, but they won't do anything about the warring people in Africa. It's obvious the only reason we are in Iraq is for oil. Africa doesn't have a natural resource we want, so republicans of course don't care if they die.

People are against the troops and claim that they " Don't Support the troops" yet these people also don't support compulsory conscription. As a military wife I often wonder what would become of the world if my husband who has volunteered to serve in the military so that others may have the freedom to live and do what they wish in a free country and not have to worry about being conscripted. What would happen if my husband took to heart all the nasty comments being said to the troops and took a job as a salesman. Who would protect our precious country if all the troops quit? Would these people who don't support the troops step up and take their place or would they hide themselves away in their homes from the violence which would errupt in the streets. I often wonder what sort of troops these people would make if they were conscripted. Just because you don't agree with the government doesn't mean that our troops shouldn't be supported for the job that they have stepped up to do.

How often do you tell your significant other you love them, how do you express your affection, and when was the last time you did that? It would be nice to know what you did!

I once cashed a cheque at the bank. I had spent just one rupee from the amount before I realised the bank clerk had made a mistake. He had transposed the rupees with the paise. I now had exactly twice the value of the original cheque. What was the original cheques's value?
the answer is Rs.32.66
How did they come up with that, what's the trick in the problem and also what equations are to be used.
I Rs. = 100 paise.
thanks.

Confessions of Bobby?
Little Bobby came into the kitchen where his mother was making dinner.
His birthday was coming up and he thought this was a good time to tell his mother what he wanted.
"Mom, I want a bike for my birthday." Little Bobby was a bit of a troublemaker.
He had gotten into trouble at school and at home. Bobby's mother asked him if he thought he deserved to get a bike for his birthday. Little Bobby, of course, thought he did.

Bobby's mother wanted Bobby to reflect on his behavior over the last year.
"Go to your room, Bobby, and think about how you have behaved this year.

Then write a letter to God and tell him why you deserve a bike for your birthday." Little Bobby stomped up the steps to his room and sat down to write God a letter.

Letter 1
Dear God,
I have been a very good boy this year and I would like a bike for my birthday. I want a red one.
Your friend,
Bobby

Bobby knew that this wasn't true. He had not been a very good boy this year, so he tore up the letter.

Letter 2
Dear God,
This is your friend Bobby. I have been a good boy this year and I would like a red bike for my birthday.
Thank you.
Your friend Bobby

Bobby knew that this wasn't true either. So, he tore up the letter and started again.

Letter 3
Dear God,
I have been an "OK "boy this year. I still would really like a bike for my birthday.
Bobby

Bobby knew he could not send this letter to God either. So, Bobby wrote a fourth letter.

Letter 4
God,
I know I haven't been a good boy this year. I am very sorry. I will be a good boy if you just send me a bike for my birthday. Please!
Thank you,
Bobby

Bobby knew, even if it was true, this letter was not going to get him a bike.



Now, Bobby was very upset. He went downstairs and told his mom that he wanted to go to church. Bobby's mother thought her plan had worked, as Bobby looked very sad.
"Just be home in time for dinner," Bobby's mother told him.

Little Bobby went into the church and up to the altar. He looked around to see if anyone was there. Bobby bent down and picked up a statue of the Mary. He slipped the statue under his shirt and ran out of the church, down the street, into the house, and up to his room. He shut the door to his room and sat down with a piece of paper and a pen. Bobby began to write his letter to God.

Letter 5
God,
I'VE KIDNAPPED YOUR MAMA. IF YOU WANT TO SEE HER AGAIN, SEND THE BIKE!!!!!!!!!!

Three women are discussing their teenage daughters.
The first declares: "I was so shocked last week. I was tidying my daughter''s room and I found a packet of cigarettes under her pillow. I didn't even know that she smoked!"

"It gets worse than that," says the second mother. "I was tidying my daughter''s room last week and I found a bottle of vodka under her bed. I didn't even know that she drank!"

"Oh, it gets even worse than that," says the third mother. "I was tidying my daughter''s room last week and you''ll never guess what I found in her bedside cabinet: a packet of condoms! I didn't even know that she had a penis!"

Do they still do it for free or how much do they charge? Can I pay next week?

My husband and I got married a year ago and filed our income jointly this year. Before I got married I used to get back a hefty sum back from the IRS, because I do not declare any dependents. This year we had to send the IRS $5000 just because we got married. Anyway, time went by quickly, we haven't changed anything in the way we pay our taxes. On top of that, I got good bonuses this year and so did my husand. I am fearing that they are going to panalize us this year because we probably end up owing more. BTW, we do not really have a significant income on my husband's side because most of his income goes to his ex wife (Alimony). How do I check our accurate current situation? Can I do it myself without an accountant? I do not want to contant the IRS. I dont want to "wake the bear up" if I don't have to.
Financially, getting married doesn't make sense!!
