Alan is still around on other networks, but I don't remember seeing
him here in a while.
Not sure if the conference hosts listed on the website are
still around. The only ones I know of are myself, Barry Martin,
and Ky Moffet.
Barry since your the Conference Administrator maybe
you have an idea who is still active.

That is what i have noticed. What I am going to do in a few days
is remove all the host names from the conference lists except
myself, Barry and Ky. Unless someone has info or the host speaks
up. I can always add it back in when there is an update, Barry do
you agree and or approve?
Micheal: I agree and approve.

I will remove host names execpt for myself, you and Ky on my next

It's snot for me to think about being something to sneeze at.
Besides, there is a meme on "Booger Nutrition Facts"...I wonder
if the guy in "Caddyshack" thought about that. :P

That way, you don't have to pay taxes on it...but I'm sure
the government will find a way to collect. Besides, The IRS
is actually THEIRS!!
I'm concerned that I'm going to have to pay a capital gains
tax on selling my car last June, due to medical/vision issues
that made me give up driving. I had great difficulty driving
at night with haloes around any kind of light (streetlight,
vehicle light, etc.)...and my vision would blur on me without
warning during the day...making it too dangerous to drive.
The thing is, what I paid for the car originally (it was a
2013 Chevy Cruze), and what I got when I sold it back to the
dealership was $4400 less than what I paid for it...so, to me,
that means I took a LOSS. The money went to pay for outpatient
heart surgery, transportation via Lyft, medications, groceries,
and other medical bills.

Lasix will really make it your pee-rogative.
Perhaps they'll take the outer casing to the zero and so you'll be left with less mpthing.
Might be worth an appointment with a tax preparer. Not necessarily H&R Block, Jackson-Hewitt and the like, but probably more the local groups
who have some training and do taxes for seniors, generally for free or very low cost.
I'd also would prepare a list of potential deductions to offset any capital gains tax you may need to pay -- at least you'd be paying less.
And 'incone averaging' might be another way to reduce/eliminate.
Though when you purchased from the dealership they reported the sale as
a gain and paid taxes. Then when re-purchased they would probably be reporting that as a loss So would average out in the eyes of the IRS.
And for whatever reason that festered until I downloaded Wednesday morning.
Lice medication.
The grass is always greener around the outhouse!
You had LASIX on which eye??!! ...I was thinking that didn't look
right" 'lasix" is a medication for fluid retention -- which is probably what yoy meant. I was thinking 'LASIK', the eye surgery.
Perhaps they'll take the outer casing to the zero and so you'll be left with less mpthing.
What's mpthing?? Is it less than nothing?? That's what the US
is running on with a $31 trillion plus deficit.

I checked with my tax preparer, and they said because I took a
loss with selling the car (what I got in selling it, compared to
what I paid for in buying it), I wouldn't have to pay any taxes.
I also checked with the county Personal Property Tax
Department, and since I no longer have a vehicle (and doubt I
will ever again), they "closed that account". I'll still have to
pay the real estate tax on the house, though... but at least it
isn't due until October 10. Statements on those won't be mailed
out until mid-March.
I'd also would prepare a list of potential deductions to offset any capital gains tax you may need to pay -- at least you'd be paying less.
The only ones I have are medical...thankfully, many times, the
medical facility will just "write off" the charges.
And 'income averaging' might be another way to reduce/eliminate.
Well, considering I get the same amount each month on
disability, that's my version of "income averaging". They say
"money talks"...mine just waves "good-bye".
Though when you purchased from the dealership they reported the sale as
a gain and paid taxes. Then when re-purchased they would probably be reporting that as a loss So would average out in the eyes of the IRS.
I had to pay $730 in sales tax to the state to get the car tags
after I bought it (it's around 8% of the total cost paid). But,
as noted, the tax preparer told me I didn't have to worry on
that. Also, I told them since I no longer drive, taking Lyft to
and from there (about 35 miles away) would be prohibitively
expensive, they said I could scan in all the items, create a PDF
file, and send it to them. Then, if signature was needed, they
would email that form to me, I'd print it, sign it, scan it in,
make a new PDF, and email it back to them. Then, I pay for the
services via my debit card over the phone. Then, I don't have to
make an in person trip to their office.
And for whatever reason that festered until I downloaded Wednesday morning.
I know you appreciated my being so considerate of you <g,d,r>.
Lice medication.
Ah, yes...pediculosis. I remember back in the schools years
ago, there would be big infections of that...and kids were forced
to stay home.
You had LASIX on which eye??!! ...I was thinking that didn't look
right" 'lasix" is a medication for fluid retention -- which is probably what yoy meant. I was thinking 'LASIK', the eye surgery.
LASIK is the eye surgery...LASIX is the diuretic (generic term
is Furosemide). LASIK should improve your vision...LASIX should
improve the activity of your urinary system...because it's better
to be pissed off than pissed on. Because, some days, you're the dog...other days, you're the hydrant.
I appreciate any good considerations!

And that's why when the Pharmacist asks "what's this meddication being taken for?" one answers correctly: don't want to be getting the wrong medication and putting it in the wrong place!! ...My pharmacy is a Midwester chain and they'll print a "this is the same medication" sheet
if their supplier has changed and so the pill has a different shape, colour, etc. A few months back I did a refill and the bottle was much larger than normal. Before ringing up I asked if correct; yup: they
had run out of the correct size and so were using the next size.

And since it's the government it's like the contestant on Jeopardy! who
at the end has a negative score: doesn't play but still goes home with $1000.
Well that's good.
And hopefully you are setting aside that payment.
Well the good news is the list of potential deductions was for the
capital gains on the car, of which you have been told doesn't exist so
not needed. And couldn't use the written-off bills as they are zero.
From what I understand 'income averaging' is done over the past several years to offset a spike in income. That way a smaller group of money
is waving bye-bye.
That's good. Saves a a bunch of time and money. Time you have, money
not so much.

I thought if they ended up with a negative total, they were
eliminated from "Final Jeopardy", and all they got were
consolation prizes. With the "current show", only the winner
keeps the money.

Not yet...but I will...I've got other bills first.

What was your first clue??
You haven't watched TV in a while, have you?! The prize rule was
changed several years back. The last-placed contestant receives
$1,000, the second-placed contestant $2,000, while the winner continues
to accumulate all the money earned. As for Final Jeopardy!. only the contestants with a positive amount of money can play, and I have seen
just the one person play. Obviously not playing against anyone, but playing against himself.
That's always kind of a problem: other stuff.
One gets what they ask for!
And then they re-give it and attempt to make it look like it wasn't
yours to begin with.

That's probably been the thought through the ages. Depending on the example I would think some of it is the fault of the parents. Parents shouldn't be shoo-ing their kids off to entertaining themselves and instead playing with/being involved with them. OTOH the parents need their 'alone time', plus the kids shouldn't 100% rely on the parents
for something to do.
Is that due to accumulation over time?!

Years ago, parents would drop their kids off at the malls, and
the kids would get into all sorts of trouble. Then, the parents
would say "My kid would never do something like that!!". Yet,
when shown the video evidence, they'd file a lawsuit for
"invasion of privacy".

Well, all of us are going to meet The Grim Reaper eventually. I
think of the meme where this amateur radio operator gets
confronted by The Grim Reaper, who tells him "That fancy,
expensive HF rig, you ordered behind your wife's back?? It
arrived today, and she signed for it. Do you want to go home
first and face her, or do you just want to come with me now??". <G>

To me would seem odd to not watch TV: I do it more as a meaans to be
aware of what is happening in the outside world via the news, though
also use reading as a source. The other couple hours is more for entertainment and distraction.

I think the Democrats are the party of death...with wanting
abortions, to kill off the elderly and disabled, and the rest of
the population with Covid-19...and now with eliminating gas
stoves and other appliances. They want to save the planet, by
destroying the population. Well, if all life has died off,
there's no point in the planet being here, either. And, according
to the Bible, one day, the planet will be destroyed by fire,
anyway.
Next, if you get rid of coal and LP gas, and the electrical
grid goes down from an EMP (that will happen...the question is
"when?"), people will freeze to death in winter, die from
heatstroke in the summer, and starve to death for lack of food.
They themselves probably got shots of just a saline solution,
saying they actually got the Covid-19 shots. It's more of "Rules
For Thee, But Not For Me".
