Was Howard Stern the primary reason you purchased your satellite radio?
I stopped listening when he went off the FM air waves.

stilleto said:same here.
except for the football thing.
i get notice of my favorite songs or artists when they come on too- i love that.
digimon7068 said:so you ride along with martin and earnhardt on sunday afternoons too (he asks. . .knowing full well that she missed that part of my original comment). . .are you sure we weren't separated at birth?? wanna get back together?? joined at the hip. . .so to speak![]()
stilleto said:who is "earnhardt"?
lol
ok, i don't listen to any sports, unless you count howard stern.

heatherrae said:I did have sirius but could not get the howard stern show on it. I guess you have to pay for that seperately?
That is odd. I could read the channel that it said howard stern on the display, but I only got dead air.stilleto said:no- its channel 100 and 101. doesn't cost extra.
I had no idea why. I usually listened to the jimmy buffet station anyway because I was usually outside and in sunny weather when I used the sirius radio.stilleto said:EWWWWWW!!!!!
NASCAR!!!!!!!!!!
lol
how's tax season? my accountant performed a miracle.

digimon7068 said:it's ok. . .almost over. . .thank god. . .i literally fall asleep at my desk 3 or 4 times per day. . .
i perform miracles everyday![]()
stilleto said:i bet you do.
my accountant looks like mr. ratburn from the arthur cartoon, but if he looked like you and got me that refund, well then he woulda had to watch out.
digimon7068 said:stop. . .you're making me![]()
a big refund usually means you paid in too much to begin with. . .or you lost your ass on something. . .when "good fortune" comes your way, it usually costs you money. . .
stilleto said:yeah, i'm afraid something is wrong.
but i trust him.
i'm getting back somewhere between 7,000-8,000
i won't question it though.![]()
digimon7068 said:i got a dentist client of mine $8k+ back. . .he started his own practice toward the end of the year (small loss), he worked for someone else up to that point, had taxes withheld through most of the year at the "higher single rate" and he and his wife had a baby during 2006. . .viola. . .big refund. . .
stilleto said:i'm not really sure what happened. i bought and sold 2 homes, but i was unemployed for a while. i thought i'd get clobbered, but it was fine!
i included a lot of home office expenses, but i didn't think i even included enough.
i won't quite believe it till i get the checks.

digimon7068 said:the houses generated "capital gain" income (taxable at a maximum rate of 15%) and you probably made estimated payments throughout the year based upon 2005's "ordinary income" which is taxable at up to 39%. . .you were unemployed for a while so your ordinary income was down. . .and the result of the gains on the house sales being taxed at the lower capital gain rate is a big refund. . .if i had to guess
all this tax talk is turning me on. . .have i sexually harrassed you lately??
stilleto said:i didn't make estimated payments. i was told to, and didn't.![]()
do i still have to pay capital gains tax if i purchased another house? because one sale netted me a profit of $450,000 from the time i purchased it to the time i sold it, but i bought another home with that profit.
and... no, i don't believe you have.![]()
