My home-made lasagna! (okay, it's really just "assembled"...I make it with a sauce mix) ;D But it's pretty darned good.

Well the producer of the Mario Frangoulis concert just sent me my 2005 1099!  Only two weeks late, and the excuse is how damned busy he's been.  I now have to pay to have my taxes redone, and I am furious.   He will be invoiced for the new charges.

He could also be fined for breaking a Federal Tax Law.  :o

Would it be easiercheaper to file an amended return later in the year rather than changing everything?

I used to have a recipe on how to doctor up boxed macaroni and cheese...and it was very good!  However, I lost the recipe several years ago. :P I've tried to figure something out from memory and/or experimentation, but I just can't get it right.  Oh, well.

DR George - I think I have this recipe at home.  It's what I use to make what's fondly referred to in our household as "Tuna Glop."  You start with a blue box of Kraft Mac 'n' Cheese, prepare as directed with a little extra milk, add a can of cream of celery OR mushroom OR chicken soup and a choice of meats - tuna, chicken, cut-up hotdogs, etc.  My favorite combo is cream of celery soup, tuna, and a can of mushrooms.  Bake at 325 for about half an hour.  Great comfort food, with peas on the side and corn muffins.

I love tuna glop - once your macaroni is done.....everything else can be prepared and served in the SAME dish!  I always add the peas before baking, and sometimes put Ritz Cracker crumbs on top.

Speaking of Tuna Glop, I just copied it and sent it to my home e-mail. I'll make it for dinner some night soon and let you know how Anthony likes it. Sounds good to me :-)

Be prepared to spend some time sitting down after eating, DR BEN.  And of course the only dessert that can follow it, is ice cream.

Sometimes I, too, put the peas in the casserole before baking.  My topping of choice is sprinkled paprika.

The Men's Free Skate is going on right now, and will be complete by 5 pm EST.  Not sure if I want to search for the results or not.  Hmmmm.....

Monday, I managed NOT to know how the pairs turned out, so I'm going to great lengths today to avoid learning today's results.  I have to go to my book group tonight, but should be home by the time NBC gets around to showing the top skaters.

I need a lime or lemon wedge.  I have a bottle of seltzer on my desk that I bought this morning and now it's room temperature.  Drinkable, but it needs zing, it need zest, it needs pow.

DR JRand55. I really don't know, but I was prepared to pick up my tax forms tomorrow and now I may have to cancel a financial meeting about the IRS on Monday because of this screwed up situation.

In college, we used to add tuna and a can of mushroms to the Kraft packaged Noodles Romanoff and call it Toodles Romanoff

There is a "State" funeral here in OZ for Australia's (then) richest man - for what he has done for our country!!  Priorities.  If his money created jobs etc it would not be through his altruism!! A "celebrity" event at the Sydney Opera house. Do the Australian taxpayers really need to pay for this?

Mike Davis just thanked God for his opportunity at IU, but it's time to go after six years.

Bottom line after all the bull:  he leaves at the end of the season with $800,000 of the taxpayer's money for doing nothing for the next two years.

God ignored the Holocaust, but he wanted Mike Davis at IU and DREAMGIRLS to win the Tony.

Didn't this guy die about three weeks ago?!?  Why is it taking so long to bury people these days?

I wish he wanted me to win the lottery.  But then Bruce Coughlin won a Tony.  Maybe God is dead.

With the family's money there would have been no shortage of ice.
It is of course a "Memorial Service".  There was a private funeral.

Is the state, perhaps, going to get most of his estate?
