I have done a few thousand tax returns in my life.
I'm with Kimmi on the Spud issue. Nice and lumpy is the way for me.
I spent grades 1-4 attending a segregated school in Louisville, Ky where the only black people were the four rather large women in the cafeteria ( think of Aunt Jemima (sp ) ).
They did not use flakes. That made scratch mashed potatoes, Tons of lumps and real butter. Man those women could cook!
They used to give me a little extra because I was so nice to them.
Mashed potatoes have played a significant role in improving race relations!

"It's also a simple and indisputable fact that WAR isn't the be-all end-all in valuations, especially in real life. Wanna know why? Because an ace in run-prevention for 120 innings means more often than not, a sub-standard pitcher covering for the rest of the IP that pitcher fails to provide. You can't see value in a vacuum when a player does not provide full-time production."
I do mine online. TurboTax is free for both Federal and State returns. Of course, my taxes are about as simple as they get. I have one job, no wife, no kids, no business-related deductions or charitable stuff. Doing my returns on TT takes about 15 minutes.
