My Federal Return has been accepted. It always takes the State Return a couple of days longer. Of course I OWE the State $257.....crazy!I will use most of my Federal Refund to pay that bill.You are NOT taxed more on the basis of race, sex, or age - BUT you are taxed MORE if you are single. It is the single discrimination that drives me up the wall.I am curious. Those of you that have a state income tax; do you also have a sales tax?I thought most states have both. I would prefer no income tax to our no sales tax.We do not have a state income tax in Washington. Instead, we have a retail sales tax that varies by city or county. It ranges from 7.7% to 9.5% Food and prescription drugs are exempt.

Yes DR TCB - we have a 7% sales tax AND a state income tax AND a local income tax as well.

It's not raining anymore so why that happened is anyone's guess. It shut the computer down (thank goodness everything was "saved") and I had to reset two clocks. It apparently happened about ten minutes before I got back.Why would you leave the house with your computer on?
