So if the IRS freezes my assets, does that prevent the mortgage company from foreclosing my house?

Comment Spammers Be Gone!
Yesterday I added the WordPress plugin Did You Pass Math? That means that unregistered users will see an question at the bottom of comments like "What is the sum of 2 and 3?" If you get it right, you can post a comment.
Wow. I had written a really long post here. Which is good because I was being whiney. Can someone put up a test comment?

Anyone remember GW’s finger flipping video?
BOSTON, March 27 (UPI) — U.S. Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia startled reporters in Boston just minutes after attending a mass, by flipping a middle finger to his critics. …making the obscene gesture and explaining “That’s Sicilian.”
Sicilian for what? "I have no sense of propriety"?! [Source]
And I’m reminded that Cheney told a senator to "F*&k yourself."
Our current administration gives me the feeling that our forefathers worked hard to establish this country and now its just the polticians playground…not very different than a man working hard to build wealth for his family only to have his children squander and not appreciate the wealth.
Kristy Beats Spam
Kristyk who turned me onto WordPress (which Knoxjon uses) has an interesting antispam setup for her comments. When commenting, you have to answer a random math question “What is the sum of 9 and 3?” Registered users don’t see the question. Michael Silence gets rid of all comment spam by requiring registration to post a comment. Now, where do you register?
From the mouths of babes
Amy: "I’m going to eat this to grow big and strong to take care of Evan because he’s little and silly and ticklely. He tickles me. He makes me laugh."
Progress!
Today I have coded like a mad man. Pending client approval, I have put a project to rest and enjoyed myself in the process! Next…

Student: I’m failing my family so badly.
Master: Bemoaning failure does little to make success.
It’s good to be the kid
Imagine two 10 foot lengths of ½ inch pvc pipe. Add two boys, one 15 mentally 8; one 9, mentally…well, all nine year olds are mental. I look out the window and the nine year old swings his sword, his 10 foot long sword, at the 15 year old then runs down the street and the 15 year old swings his sword, his 10 foot long sword, in circles above his head while chasing his little brother down the street. Each child laughing manically.
So many $10,000 video moments!
Children Steal Your IQ
- Put 10 month old into swing and buckle securely.
- Hold your left hand as if you were going to shake hands.
- Place a bottle of Tylenol Infant Drops Plus Cold between your thumb and index finger of the left hand.
- Use your right hand to squeeze dropper and remove cap with dropper full of medicine.
- Use left hand to remove pacifier from infant’s mouth by grabbing with index finger and thumb.
- Try to place dropper into infant’s mouth only to realize taking infant to 9 year old’s karate lessons has been a mistake.
- Use pinky finger, ring finger and middle finger of left hand to hold down infant’s right arm.
- Use right forearm to block infant’s left hand.
- Quickly shove dropper into infant’s mouth.
- Realize that since step 7 the bottle of Tylenol Infant Drops Plus Cold has been pouring onto infant’s stomach.
Perhaps I watched too much Three Stooges as a child.
My brain has been damaged
The Higglytown Heroes just did The Time Warp. (they tried diguising it with word changes to make it about how to find a lost family member)
I have some interesting memories of The Rocky Horror Picture Show (amz)
Evan makes the grandparents nervous
Notice Granny’s hand in the lower right? Evan laughs and loves doing this!
Where will we go?
The letter came today. In 60 to 90 days we could potentially be part of Knoxville’s homeless. Any suggestions on shelters?
How the mind works.
Check out this very interesting post. Although adults may initially be shocked by the picture, apparently it is absolutely safe to view with your children.

Student: I don’t think I can save us this time.
Master: Does it have to be you, alone, that saves us?
