    I'm a big kitchen person, and this one had all-new appliances, granite countertops, and a pantry. Oh, and a nearly new Whirlpool Cabrio washer and dryer. 2 bed, 2 bath, wood floors, dining room, and an eat-in kitchen. I could use the dining room as an office and have a real, honest-to-goodness spare bedroom. The only thing on my list it didn't have was covered parking. It has a space in a gated lot, though.

    Skinky-D can be a bit dicey - at least, that's my impression. There have been problems on The Loop as well. However, driving down the street, there were LOTS of nice cars. Really, really nice cars. The condo is in one of the areas with Wash U buyer incentives, which probably helps.

    I watched it again and still found myself letting out a loud cheer. It never gets old.

    Do you usually do your own return? If so, you probably can do them yourself. I believe the interview process on TurboTax will ask you the pertinent questions. You will have the sale of your home, which may or may not have a taxable gain (probably not). You will also have moving expenses and don't forget the fun of filing in two states. I don't know if the Turbo Tax for individuals will do the two states automatically or not. If any of these comments make you uncomfortable you might want to consider having someone else prepare them this time.

    Thanks. Just like Bob and Bing. Or Magic Man and El Diablo. Or Hill and Laettner...(well, perhaps I stretch the limits of believability there)

    Thanks! I have always found TurboTax to be quite helpful. I'm sure the two state thing will be a pain, but probably not impossible. My big hope is that I'll get a big refund this year so I'll have more money for the condo fund.

    That sounds like fun! I've never been diving. Where do you go? What kind of stuff do you look at? In AR I believe it's a big deal to dive in the man-made lakes and look at some of the old towns that are now under water.

    My fun for the evening was ice skating. A co-worker and I braved the pre-teen set at Steinberg (the outdoor rink in Forest Park). I only fell twice. I'm getting much better at falling. That may sound funny, but it's definitely an art. No bruised knees or messed-up shoulders this time.

    Can someone help me out here? What is LGD?

    I'll disagree on one point: I don't think Pitino should be fired for not guarding Hill.

    In the bottom right corner, there are three icons - one that says "quote," one that has a quote and a +, and then a third for "quick reply." The middle one is for multi-post quoting. Click on the icon, and it turns orange, indicating it's on the list to be quoted. Then, at the bottom of a page, click the "reply" button, and all the posts will be in the editing pane. The quotes get inserted in the order that you click the "multi-quote" buttons.

    Note - this really hurts one's PWing efforts.

    I do most of my diving in the puget sound area, or San Juan islands just to the north. We've got several easy shore dives just within a half-hour of our house, so that's convenient. Today was a gear tune-up, as Mr. DA got some new stuff, and I've just not been wet for a couple months. Next week, we'll be diving a couple of wrecks (sunken boats). As for what I see, my dive buddy captures a lot of it here: http://www.joeschmoe.com/

    I've always been fascinated with the programs that show wrecks. You must see some really interesting things. IIRC you've also mentioned dives that you've taken on vacations, right? What's the coolest dive you've ever been on?
