Greetings All!!!
I had a great Mother's Day...even if Lowell never said Happy Mother's Day to me
My son took me and Mom out to lunch at Applebee's and I ate like a PIG! LOL He also gave me a potted plat (he knows I really don't like cut flowers cause they die so quickly heh) and he made a card for me that he wrote a poem for. It was beyond sweet. Then, I took a nap to sleep off the Long Island Ice Teas from lunch and went over to Mary's after. When I got to her office...this is what was waiting for me...
I named him Gregory...yeah Gregory the PURPLE Mother's Day Beanie Baby
It's my first REAL Beanie Baby!! WOOHOO!!!
Then I ate AGAIN, yeah 2 times in one day...scary, huh? But the Ziti rocked!! Now I'm stuffed and won't eat again for a week at least. Heh!!
Hope all you Mother's out there had a GREAT day like I did!!
Loves,
~Trin

In honor of Tax season and the fact that I'm a tax preparer, I thought I might share some quotations on taxes with you....Enjoy!!
~Trin
I can give you 1040 good reasons why I hate the government. ~The Quote Garden
People try to live within their income so they can afford to pay taxes to a government that can't live within its income. ~Robert Half
Intaxication: Euphoria at getting a refund from the IRS, which lasts until you realize it was your money to start with. ~Author unknown, from a Washington Post word contest
Question: " I understand that Congress is considering a so-called 'flat' tax system. How would this work?" Answer: "If Congress were to pass a 'flat' tax, you'd simply pay a fixed percentage of your income, and you wouldn't have to fill out any complicated forms, and there would be no loopholes for politically connected groups, and normal people would actually understand the tax laws, and giant talking broccoli stalks would come around and mow your lawn for free, because Congress is NOT going to pass a flat tax, you pathetic fool." ~Dave Barry
The income tax created more criminals than any other single act of government. ~Barry Goldwater
The wages of sin are death, but after they take the taxes out, it's more like a tired feeling, really. ~Paula Poundstone
I like to pay taxes. With them I buy civilization. ~Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.
Today, it takes more brains and effort to make out the income-tax form than it does to make the income. ~Alfred E. Neuman
It's income tax time again, Americans: time to gather up those receipts, get out those tax forms, sharpen up that pencil, and stab yourself in the aorta. ~Dave Barry
Taxes: Of life's two certainties, the only one for which you can get an automatic extension. ~Author Unknown
Of course the truth is that the congresspersons are too busy raising campaign money to read the laws they pass. The laws are written by staff tax nerds who can put pretty much any wording they want in there. I bet that if you actually read the entire vastness of the U.S. Tax Code, you'd find at least one sex scene ("'Yes, yes, YES!' moaned Vanessa as Lance, his taut body moist with moisture, again and again depreciated her adjusted gross rate of annualized fiscal debenture"). ~Dave Barry
We have long had death and taxes as the two standards of inevitability. But there are those who believe that death is the preferable of the two. "At least," as one man said, "there's one advantage about death; it doesn't get worse every time Congress meets." ~Erwin N. Griswold
The United States has a system of taxation by confession. ~Hugo Black
The taxpayer - that's someone who works for the federal government but doesn't have to take the civil service examination. ~Ronald Reagan
Taxation with representation ain't so hot either. ~Gerald Barzan
Taxes, after all, are dues that we pay for the privileges of membership in an organized society. ~Franklin D. Roosevelt

There are, officially, 45 days left in tax season and I'm wondering if I'm going to survive til then LOL. Today should be my day off but, once again, there are things to be done so I will work. Heh...it's not a big deal really. I just wake up each morning and remind myself how many days are left and exactly how large my vacation fund is getting.
So, I'm taking suggestions on where to go overseas this year. I know I don't want to do like the Bahamas and all that and most definatly don't want to do France or Italy so......if you have any other ideas just let me know
AND I got business cards yesterday. My boss surprised me with them when I got to work after Justin's meeting at school to make next years schedule. Surprised is an understatement. I never even considered my name on any business card. It's kind of sweet. LOL. I'm thinking about scanning it and putting it up here. heh.
Well, it's back to the grind but, hey, it's PAYDAY. LMAO
Catch ya on the flilp side!

Flirt Quiz
Flirting comes naturally to you, and you flirt your way through life. You're friendly, outgoing and full of compliments. You flirt nonstop with everyone you meet, but it doesn't necessarily mean anything romantic. You have no interest in dating most of the people you flirt with — you just like winking, blowing kisses, and making people feel good about themselves. Since you flirt all the time, people who know you well might not take it seriously, but they probably appreciate the sentiment and like having you around. You believe flattery gets you everywhere, so you give lots of compliments (and you mean them all).

I found these quotes and wanted to share 
The one serious conviction that a man should have is that nothing is to be taken too seriously.
- Nicholas Butler
There are 10^11 stars in the galaxy. That used to be a huge number. But it's only a hundred billion. It's less than the national deficit! We used to call them astronomical numbers. Now we should call them economical numbers.
- Richard Feynman
The first duty of a revolutionary is to get away with it.
- Abbie Hoffman
Get all the fools on your side and you can be elected to anything.
Frank Dane

The Communique is getting a whole new site, thanks to FSF Enki. The site is also being combined with the Commander's Table, so it will all be available in one click.
I must say that it looks way sharp, all done in Flash. He just amazes me. I can't wait for you all to see it in just a few short days.
I've also made some changes to it. There's going to be alot more reporting and alot less following the FSF line. I mean, you can get the main FSF news on the website at anytime you wish, but what about everything else? What about the things that get lost in the shuffle that are just as, if not more important than who had the most posts to the forums in a month?
I'm also going to be pounding the pavement for more staff. I not only need reporters for all that news but I want to get a couple of people to take over some of the columns I've been doing myself. I'm Chief Editor, I should edit, not write. LOL!! So, if anyone is interested in reporting or doing the Exo-Biology or humor columns, just let me know.
So, be sure to keep an eye out for the new site design and all our changes. It's sure to please. It will be the place to get the real scoop on FSF happenings! LOL
Also, if you have any news that you think should be reported, feel free to IM or email me about it.
