thecow, thanks for the warning. I'm close to exploring MS Money on my new Dell. I'm using Quicken on the desktop, but have no CD since it was preinstalled, I think. Can't think of anything amusing right now. Gottfried

tc, did you author this? Political Philosophies Defined, in Simple "Two Cow" Terms Socialism: You have two cows. You keep one and give one to your neighbor. Communism: You have two cows. The government takes them both and provides you with milk. Fascism: You have two cows. The government takes them and sells you the milk. Bureaucracy: You have two cows. The government takes them both, shoots one, milks the other, pays you for the milk, and then pours it down the drain. Capitalism: You have two cows. You sell one and buy a bull. Corporate: You have two cows. You sell one, force the other to produce the milk of four cows and then act surprised when it drops dead. Democracy: You have two cows. The government taxes you to the point that you must sell them both in order to support a man in a foreign country who has only one cow which was a gift from your government. ... copied from another board, ... author unknown
