The Economist magazine 12 weeks for $12

Wow, too hot. Thanks, in for the deal and hoping it renews! Also, FYI, I selected "bill me later," then submitted, then a screen popped up that said if you pay right now (the $12), then they would give you a free 256mb usb drive, and instant access to the website. Didn't know if they...

Sorry, yes, meant San Jacinto. The map text was warped, and I had just glanced at it. Thanks for the help guys, looks like I've got a couple of options to look into! The Hilton was $240, the Driskill? isn't taking reservations, and I think there might have been an internet special for the...

Austin, TX help needed!

There is a La Qunita Inn at the corner of E 11th St. and San Jericho Blvd. It's $130 for a Saturday night. If anybody is familiar with that area, what kind of drunk walk "home" would that be after Saturday night festivities? Thanks!

Austin, TX help needed!

Just trying to dot my I's and cross my T's before I head down there. In this thread I've been told cabs are crawling on 6th, then I was told there were none on 6th and I'd need to go to 5th or 7th. Your insightful sarcasm sure makes things a lot clearer though, thanks!

Audio Output on a 32" LCD HDTV

Does your TV have variable or fixed audio output? It should say on the back, in your TV's menu, or in the manual somewhere. If it has variable audio output, you can control the amount of volume it will send your stereo receiver. If it is fixed, you could always get a universal remote...

Thanks for all of the help guys, doesn't look like the sky is falling after all :) I had a few questions after a day of thinking about it. 1. If we filed "married filing seperately," could my wife take the standard $5150 deduction on her part, along with the $3300 personal exemption...

True, I'll be paying another house payment before 12/31, so that should add another $800 in interest. I can probably find some stuff to donate to GoodWill.

What am I missing here? What else can I itemize? I'm stretching to think of every last thing, the "work from home" rule might help a little
