My 10-year-old daughter has decided she is an environmentalist. So she talked me into participating in an aggressive recycling effort with her. Last week she and I took what proved to be 134 pounds of cardboard boxes to the recycling center and earned $1.34. Counting gas and ice cream, we turned a profit of -$7.85. We’re going to use generally accepted accounting principles and see if we can apply this amount to our taxable income.

Wednesday’s Movie Trivia of the day!‘ How much movie trivia can you answer?
What movie is this quote from??? “A fella could mistake you for a half-breed.” “Not quite, I’m eighth Cherokee, the rest is Welsh and English. At least that’s what they tell me.”

Answer: “The Searchers” (1956) was directed by John Ford. What a great movie…surely the best acting display from John Wayne in his movie career! Ethan Edwards (Wayne) and Martin Pawley (Jeffrey Hunter) spend most of the movie searching for Debbie (Natalie Wood) who was carried off by the Commanches as a young girl. The above quote, which is early in the movie, occurs when the two main characters are meeting for the first time (in Martin’s adult life). Ethan, a racist who despises anyone with Indian blood, has returned to his brother’s ranch after fighting in the Civil War, and is eating with the rest of the Edwards family when Martin appears. Ethan can’t resist trying to rile him.

This is considered by some to be the ultimate tool. With its waterproof properties, it was quickly adopted for a specific military application when originally introduced. The US Government also has recommended that all homes have it available. Along with its waterproof properties, it is known for its superior bonding, is heat resistant, and is extremely strong. It is easy to use with no training required, and is widely available in various sizes and colors. NASA thinks so highly of this, it is included on every flight that leaves the launch pad. No home, military unit, or spacecraft should be without it.

What type of tool is this?
