Taxes are your friend!

Or not.
I started doing my taxes this weekend. For those who don't live in the US, we have to file Federal Income Tax by April 15th (or go to jail) every year. You calculate what you made, what you paid, and what you should have paid. Sometimes you come out on top, other times, you have to take it in the teeth.
Since they added a deduction for sales tax this year, I have to find the receipt for motorcycle I purchased for my wife this year. It's someplace around here.
Early indications are that I'm getting a decent return this year (I overpaid by about $3,000). I wanna pay off a credit card or two... my wife wants to put that in the "I wanna jacuzzi" fund (that will totally make it a "I'm buying a jacuzzi today" fund).
