Does anyone know if I want to make my 401K plan contributions on a pre-tax basis or a Roth basis?

Go Roth. Choose Roth. If you take money out of a Roth before retirement, you're only penalized on the interest. The argument behind pre-tax is that you'll be in a lower tax bracket when you start withdrawing money, but that's often not the case.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Hey, where's ita? have I missed her posts in my work-skimmage?

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I don't recall seeing ita post today.

hwæt

She hasn't posted all day. I was wondering about how she would react to Monty Hall giving her a goat.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Does it make a difference for company matching purposes

hahahahaha. Not for 5 years.

I was leaning towards the half and half myself, because I probably wouldn't be in a lower tax bracket, unless I am.

She'd pull a knife and fork out of her back pocket. And possible some spices.

I'm trying to be better organized at work, rather than keeping it all in my head. It's a good thing too, because OMGSOMUCH is going on that even staring at my lists and instructions I'm all wait, what were we talking about again?! Oof.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I finally ate at Applebee's! And it was delicious. And there looked like a lot of other good things on the menu. So there. The only annoyance was that the check was fourteen-something, so I asked for change from my $20, because I was going to leave a $3 tip. Perfectly respectable. But she came back with a $5 bill for me. I over-tipped out of annoyance. Who does that?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Dude. "Can I get change" means "can I get the change broken down into smaller units". Not "can I get back the difference between this and the total on the bill". That part comes by default unless otherwise stated!

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I should only go on crime sprees with Teppy.

Good plan! And remember -- we SAY NOTHING TO THE COPS!!!

You would think that it would not be horribly difficult to find a pair of uncropped, reasonably priced cargo pants. And yet.

Well, at least I found the Threadless store all right.
