I will not be receiving it, but if I was, I would definitely be spending it on alcohol. Booze temporarily allows me to forget who is running this country.

But when we turn to the Hebrew literature, we do not find such jokes about the donkey. Rather the animal is known for its strength and its loyalty to its master (Genesis 49:14; Numbers 22:30).

Just to update, my payroll processor said they updated the changes starting March 5th. I just got paid and there is no change in my check, so I guess this isn't something I will see until next Feb when I file.

Ours changed. My husband has 16 dollar per pay (paid weekly), I got 34 dollar more (paid twice a month).

If you are claiming exempt, they are not withholding any taxes from your paycheck. I hope you have discussed this with a tax person and will not have a bad surprise next Feb.

71 responses and no one plans to give to charity. You people disappoint me.

I already teach an ESOL class and give tours at a local museum to people with disabilities and the general public.

Giving time is more charitable than giving money.
