Pretty cool.
I walked by a rabbit yesterday. I was taking out my garbage can and the thing was sitting in the middle of my driveway. It just wandered over to the next driveway and sat there while I took the can out. I bet when I went in, it probably went back to sitting on my driveway.

Ha, I saw a Marmot yesterday too. (earlier in the day, not the bear eating the marmot or anything)

Mike Zeisberger is one hideous guy. He's on Off the Record right now and he's got the greasiest hair going. It's also too long for a guy who's bald on top. And I don't know what the hell is wrong with his teeth but they're worse then British teeth.

I am pretty sure there is more intelligent posting in this thread than in some of the FOI threads.

It's all about respectful disagreement. It seems like some people can't do it.

Well that's what I thought, but a buddy wasn't sure. I figured it had to be. He just got reassessed and now owes them 700 bucks or something.

Did his company not deduct taxes when they paid him his severance? This should've all been done for him, and it would all be included on his ROE and his T4.

More "Looney Tunes" vs reading the rest of "Out of Mao's Shadow"... hmm.

I need some new XBox games. What's new that's any good and isn't yet another shooter?

I think you should take up the classics of Droopy. These are classics from mine and 4x4s childhood that still make us laugh hysterically!

I guess not. He said they effed it up somehow, but I'm not sure exactly what happened.

Wasn't his big shtick having that depressed voice all the time? Droopy the canine emo? Does he have 1-ton weights dropping out of the sky onto characters and all kinds of ridiculous tomfoolery to match?

Yes!! Droopy's tomfoolery is definitely comparable to any looney tunes. We loved them all as kids, but, IMO Droopy is way more outlandish with their tomfoolery thus making it extra hilarious.
You should give it a try. I'll try and Youtube some of our favorites to give you an example.
I shall return...

Hmmm...i suppose it's plausible that a company could make that mistake...however, if he was getting taxes taken off on every paycheck up until then, i highly doubt that they would've made that mistake on the severance.
Either way, that sucks for your friend. But, it's definitely taxable.
