It’s a stack of photos - three rolls of film’s worth. They lie buried in a box under my bed 99.9% of the time.
They are photos of monuments and landmarks. Graves and soldiers. Capitols and statues. No groupings of friends. No wacky close up’s trying to get me in the frame. No friends at all.
It was a [...]

“If Obama is elected, all is forgiven.” At the 2008 Conference on World Affairs, Wendy Chamberlin (U.S. Ambassador to Pakistan at the time of 9/11) was asked in a Q&A, “What is the rest of the world saying about the upcoming presidential election?” Her response: “If Obama is elected, all is forgiven.”“Forgiven for what?” you might ask. The short answer is that the world might f

There is now tax relief for homeowners. In a news brief issued by the IRS for the benefit of those with troubled loans, the government now says that if your mortgage debt is partly or entirely forgiven during 2007, 2008 or 2009 you may be able to claim special tax relief by filling out Form 982 and attaching it to your federal income tax return for that year. Usually, forgiveness of debt results

John Edwards has admitted to cheating on his wife. There are tons of blogs out there that are quickly condemning him. I have to ask the question, does he deserve forgiveness? Should John Edwards be forgiven?

My sister was with me recently as I went about doing errands, and I was telling her about a particular t-shirt I was wearing. I told her before we went into a Walmart how every time I wear this shirt, people stop and inquire about it. On this shirt is a form of a cross, and letters which state “NOT PERFECT… JUST FORGIVEN”. We went into Walmart and before we could walk five paces with our ca

God is highly dangerous. We are sinful and He is holy. Sin can no more exist in the presence of God than darkness can exist in the presence of light. To stand before Him as we are is to invite destruction. If God were to keep a record of our sins, we could not stand in His presence.In a cemetery not far from New York City is a headstone engraved with a single word:FORGIVENThe message is simple, un
I used to love the former U.S. Rep. Harold Ford Jr. In fact, I'd look forward to his appearances on the Imus in the Morning program. Yet after the way he treated Imus during the whole Rutgers fiasco, my regard for Ford changed dramatically.And Imus hasn't exactly forgotten what Ford did to him by turning has back completely.On Wednesday's show, Imus, speaking of Ford, who still hasn't reached out to the I-Man (many others, like Tim Russert and Chris Dodd have), called Ford a "low-rent, back stabbing little skunk." It's moments and lines like this that remind me why I like Imus so much. And by the way, Ford would be nothing were it not for Imus, who even supported his run for the United States Senate. Shockingly, Ford didn't invite Imus and his wife to the wedding. Oh well. Skunks will be s
At lunch today I appologized to the girls for being short-tempered with them this morning....Me: Girls, Mommy is really tired today, but I'm sorry for being so short with y'all this morning. Mommy will do better, ok?Emmy: It's OK Mom cause you're growing really really taller.I'm not sure she understood what I meant by 'short', but she put a smile on my face so all is good. It's good to be forgiven!
Spot the TurdWe have been reliably informed that there has been an outcry within the BNP ranks to reinstate Stuart Russell-AKA Dr Phil Edwards the now defunct press officer of the British National Party.He may always have been a little under the weather after opening time, and had a strange objection to his real name, but at least he had a semblance of an interest in politics.The new press officer Simon "I'm a pil-lark" Darby who is also the deputy leader of the BNP is we are told affectionately known as "birdbrain"Probably this relates to his endless drivel about birdwatching,which he manages to chuck in at just about every bleeding opportunity he gets!However since his latest pictorial offering on his daft blog has suddenly become known as "Shit for brains"You see old Simon has developed a strange fetish for big turdsSee http://www.simondarby.blogspot.com/Maybe that explains why he likes the company of Griffin and Collett!
Another article on paying taxes on a forgiven debt. Any debt that is forgiven by your lender is considered income. Fortunately most of us won't have to face these kinds of problems. Very few of us are $200,000 in debt. The average credit card debt is only $9k.What gets me is that you aren't just paying taxes on the money you borrowed and never paid back. I suppose I can understand that, as the lender gets breaks as well when it writes off unrecovered debts. But how much of that "debt" isn't what you borrowed...but just interest and fees? I borrow $5k from the lending company, miss a payment and lose my job, and they write off a balance of $10k after a year because of all the fees. So I pay taxes on 10k instead of 5k? That's a little hard to stomach, especially since default rates and fees are just absurd.Which makes me wonder, if I borrow $5k and they add a ton of fees and charges to hike up the balance, do they WANT me to pay? What happens when a lender writes of a debt? Tax break
Free Money Finance recently had a post regarding paying taxes after your house is foreclosed on.
This is true, any debt you are forgiven is subject to taxation as regular income. There are several exclusions however, so one may apply to you to remove you of such an obligation. As one FMF commenter pointed out, you are excluded if you are insolvent.
To read all the rules of this exclusion, refer
.....for thinking that this blog is going way off beam and concentrating more on Coggeshall wildlife in general than the feline creature to which it is dedicated. But in the continuing absence of KC what else can I do apart from regularly show that I am on the lookout for him.A beautiful morning (and part of the afternoon) in Coggeshall today. Once again, the two black dogs were enjoying themselves running around in the field to the north of Abbey Lane. This time they were accompanied by their owner. Meanwhile, the rest of the local wildlife seems to think Spring has sprung - and perhaps they are right. Wood pigeons, thrushes and blackbirds have been busy gathering nesting material and disappearing into my hedge - only to reappear with empty mouths. The rooks also seem to have been busy building their nests in the trees nearby. Meanwhile, rabbits basked in the sunshine and four (yes, four) magpies were also perched on top of my hedge. I often see magpies in Coggeshall, but to see four
It seems as though Viacom boss Sumner Redstone who is the head of Paramount film studios who Tom Cruise used to be involved with has had a change of heart.
The film company severed ties with the movie actor after his embarrassing performance on the Oprah Winfrey show, you know the one where his was jumping all over the sofa like an idiot showing how much he loves Katie Holmes.
Paramount was not happy about that, and then Cruise started to blurt out his different beliefs about childbirth, which is when Paramount film studios decided to cut all ties with the actor.
Now time has passed and Tom Cruise is almost back to his old self, studio boss Sumner has since said, “I would probably work with Tom in the future but not immediately.”
Therefore, it is a step in the right direction, so let's hope that Tom will act like the great man his used to be and we might just see a Mission Impossible IV who knows ah
