BamaReb--I have to agree there is a superb gathering of the dysfunctional here. At least the socially, intellectually, morally, ethically, and hygenically dysfunctional. I would not limit it to strictly Northerners though. The Southern contribution to this thread has been significant.
<<My Great Great Great Grand Pappy spins in his grave everytime I post here>> Would that be the GGG Grand Pappy who was drilled by a Yankee at Shiloh while answering a call of nature? Clever thing to do while people are shooting at you. I won't ask about the genetic ramifications of this.

I got a number of calls around Christmas time from people here wanting to get funds from Boiler Room Discount Brokerage for buying presents and other frivolous activities. I hope the Christmas card I sent explained why I as steward of your accounts couldn't allow you to be so wasteful.
Lately I have been getting requests for funds in anticipation of needing money for income taxes. I have good news for just about everyone involved. It is very likely you will not be needing any funds for tax purposes. As a general rule most folks with an account with me will find they have some very large deductions they will be able to use to reduce their tax burden.
