For what we are about to receive, may we be truly thankful.

Middle east? Try again my friend.....he was from another terrorist state...California! [:D] He drove cross country, parked at a parking garage, then hopped on the Metro for one stop.
Imagine trying to take out two well armored cops (and these are not your local mall-cop rent-a-cop, these guys are definately some of the best trained cops in the country) and right behind them are lots of other cops with full auto weapons behind bullet proof protection. This had to be a case of what my cop friends call "suicide by cop". [:(]
Thats what I first thought when I heard it.
He could have just hit his local donut shop and saved himself a 3000+ mile drive! [:D]
In CA? They would have attempted counseling, or a group session....and if that failed
medical marijuana".

We plan on taking leave in less than two weeks. We are considering doing a "round Robin" trip to do some touring and errands on the way. Possibilities are DC to Millington TN (location of USN Bureau of Personnel--chance to meet and thank my wife's detailer!) then direct to Omaha. After we finish our stuuf there , we'd like to combine it with a vacation/errand trip going due south to the gulf coast (also avoiding winter weather) through New Orleans, Mobile,Pensacola (one day stops at most) then to Jacksonville to take care of updating things like drivers licences, voter registration, banking, etc. Then back to DC. Obviously everything would be flexible , determined by time, weather and intrest of the moment. [:)]

By the way, found a youtube video of the Hastings Naval Ammunition Depot.

Good video. Very interesting. A couple of other YouTube videos on the same topic. Would certainly be an interesting day trip...

RE: THE THREAD!!!
Somewhat related to disgruntlement.
My 08 return had to be amended because I forked up the routing number. So I amend it and send it in . . . nope can't amend, must use 1040X . . . sent in 1040X . . . nope, should have amended return, not used a 1040X . . . arghh. Anyway, finally talked to an IRS gargoyle who said they received my return and that is was being processed in the Austin service center. This occurred last week of Jan. To make a long story somewhat shorter . . . you can guess what the next IRS gargoyle that I spoke to said when I called about the status last week.
I seriously doubt the plane hit my return but suspect a standard governmental use of tragedy as an excuse. I used to have to request a lot of documents from a governmental depository in Ft. Worth. Whenever I had a particularly difficult/important one to find they invariably said that it was lost with all the other documents in some warehouse fire in 1969. Happened repeatedly.
BTW, great euphemism. The IRS rep never used the word 'lost' to describe my return, only 'disassociated'. Lost would imply error I imagine. I asked the rep what my return had been associated with in order to become disassociated, he didn't know. Unfortunately, it's stuck in my head and I'm using it now.

Quick appearance on THE THREAD !!!
GOOD MORNING THREAD
[:D]
running away.......
was it something we said or did?
Or smelled like?
I was much more thinking like making a kid joke, yelling and then running away.
But if ever you think you need to take a shower.......[;)]
RE: THE THREAD!!!
Speaking of disgruntled; been trying to send a couple bottles of Arcadian, Sleepy Hollow Vineyard, Pino to Brother Mike for a while now. Tried twice and each time, they disappeared into the black hole of a State Beverage and Franchise Tax beaurocracy. Somewhere, there's some cheapo Ole Yeller bourbon guzzlin, mirror shades wearing, gum chewing, overweight, good ole boy who's drinking some wicked good stuff.
Maybe next time, I'll label it "Fragile - Moslem Extremeist Biological Warfare Materials - Do Not Open." Definitely going to try again. In the meantime, found another winner - Ketchum Estate, Russian River, Pinot.

Thanks for the efforts, John. [:D] With all the anticipation, my wife is expecting the real nectar of the gods. [;)]
