When KFC has a special on buckets would be the smart money.

If you would get a marriage penalty, plan it for beginning of the year so that the higher taxes take longer to go into effect. My guess is that at your age you'll most likely get a marriage bonus though, so plan for the end of the year and they will treat it like you were married for the whole year instead of just the last week.

I've heard the way to do it is to buy a house, pop out a baby, and get married all in the same year. I'm not getting married anytime soon but you can bet when I do it'll be for the bennies lol

Whoa. Was just talking to my boss about these and he asked who the Frank Zappa looking dude was. I'd not once ever made that connection.

I was Alex Lifeson or Rick Emmit or Alvin Lee
Dave was Neil Peart or, I guess, Frank Zappa
Brian was the bastard child of Sly Stone and Bonnie Franklin.

Ibanez Musician MC300. 5 piece laminate neck through. Mini-switches to split the pups and/or put them out of phase. Was a clear nod to Alembic.

MC300 - Ibanez was wiping the floor with Gibson and Fender back then.



Alembic. Amazing guitars but no-one could afford them.
