Uh, no.

There was a local radio host that called the (then current tax changes) the accountants and tax professionals relief act.

I have an electric can opener that makes a unique sound. It is seldom used for anything except feeding cats. The cats know the sound and come running.

If across the street you could get it for $2.60 instead of $2.599, where would you go?

BTW, when I quickly look at those prices, the first one looks a lot lower.

I count my land as a business and use schedule C-EZ. It is that simple (except you do subtract the numbers).

"free with 20 gallon purchase". I remember a lot of those signs, until economy cars became common and wouldn't hold 20 gallons.

$2.60 - I hate liars.

They're the same to me, except the 99 one pisses me off as I have to round it up.

[James Wilkinson Sword]

Indeed.

I think virtually all North American cable suppliers have gone to the encoded digital model - any also providing ultra high speed internet over the cable HAD to -Just the way the system works.

I once had a phone that was also a music player. While playing music, the phone would still show battery life and signal strength. However, it would NOT show the time which is what I really wanted to see.

I thought all phones played music.

I never saw that. It was 8 gallon minimum on a "fill up" for a free glass. My 72 Ford van only had a 16 gallon tank but my 71 Gremlin had a 25 gallon tank. When I topped up my 69 Corvette it was $5 and 13.9 gallons of Sunoco

260. In those days you never got out of the car, they checked your oil and washed your windshield. You told them how much gas you wanted and handed them the money.

It is for the MP3 player function.

[gfretwell]

I have a computer. ?(?)?

You use that to "vent" the can so the beer comes out better.

.....we ladled gas outta a big bucket, then sat around the cracker barrel and played our banjos..... yada, yada. ;)
