I am in Northern NJ and in January (which was frigid weather) the gas company

I knew it, I knew it, I knew it. As soon as I saw the original post
from 2008 I knew the reply would come from one of the knuckleheads
at HomeMoanersHub. The posters there are simply incapable of reading
dates of posts they show up 12 years later to reply to.

Hello everyone. I'm not totally sure if this post is in the correct
place so mods/admins feel free to move it :) I've got a question about
income tax - I earn (gross) £31,000 a year, and after tax 'this
calculator' (http://after-tax.co.uk/?income=31000) says I should make
£24,360 after tax and NI - however last year I made only £22,000 (same
wages, no bonuses or other tax related stuff coming out) after tax. What
should I do about this? I haven't received a tax return or any notice
from HMRC so a bit confused. Does anyone have any ideas of what I should
do?? Thanks!

One nice thing about leeks is, if you don't get around to harvesting
some of them for eating, they produce really cool flowers.

So do all onion-variants. The guy who gave me the leek said that if you
just cut it off at ground level it will produce more little leeks from
the roots. If I ever plant any I'll remember that.
 
Juat got back from a 3-day marathon to Antelope Canyon, Zion and Kolob.
Gas in Las Vegas. Antelope is wonderful, but it's filled with people :-(

Tech giants have one made from unobtanium.
 
(Word is that Bill Gate's card has downtime because of frequent updates and
can't be used to buy apples.)

A can of black spray paint could work for you.
