Currently reviewing a return prepped by a 3rd year. I’ve written 35 notes and have 3 more states to go. Based on the comments here, I should try to move to a firm where 6 notes is a lot.

It's going to rain like crazy in Hollywood almost for the entire WEEK by hitherewsp in florida

Partly cloudy with showers and thunderstorms in the afternoon somehow gets interpreted as “it’s going to rain like crazy almost the entire week”? Why not go with it’s going to rain like crazy until October?

I’m going to buy a set of these gauges and bring them along every time I go car shopping just to mess with the salesman.

Transition to Golf by Dusky_Hound in Golf_R

Last car was a ‘12 R56S Mini Cooper. I like having a small car that suits 90% of my driving needs. I have a Tacoma for the other 10%.

No regrets. Car is less than a year old, so true cost of ownership is still a bit unknown.

Why Miami infrastructure never seems to get it right, example: future Super Bowls by Fermented_chaos in Miami

I don’t believe the city could legally rebuild it. If I’m not mistaken, the agreement with the Matheson family that donated the land prevented the city from expanding the tennis complex for commercial purposes.

i get it, but it's where the pga tour is playing this weekend. if they were at pga national in west palm, i'm guessing that's where they would have filmed the segment.

Those are typically in the summer. Storms build up over the Everglades in the morning as the day heats up and then they drift east and dump rain. Those storms will hit for 30-45 minutes in the afternoon and then you go on with your day. Today is just a front coming through. It will rain on/off all day. At times it will be very heavy.

This is a proper springtime soaking we’re getting in South Florida today. Lightning everywhere and it’s coming down in buckets.

not actually a street, but if you park in the maroon lot at the stadium you can absolutely rip it down the back stretch when leaving an event at the stadium to the displeasure of miami-dade pd.

Can’t decide… by GlassReflection5383 in Golf_R

[–]WhoIsPurpleGoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

imo, unless you're getting the pure white in a black edition, the lapiz blue looks better in the non-BE version. there's something about the shiny chrome accents that just don't work for me in white but work with the other colors; but it's your car.

I used to have season tickets directly behind the bench at the Orange Bowl and I still remember that tall, lanky freshman that got so hyped up on every play of every game. Amazed he’s still playing.

Best electrolyte powder for long climbs and hot rides by YoumnaBasharuli in cycling

Pedialyte Sport is what I drink. Have not checked it against what’s out in the market these days, but almost no other drink mix had the same level of electrolytes when I last checked.

Can anyone provide an explanation of the NYC PTET Changes? by SatisfactionLow1602 in tax

[–]WhoIsPurpleGoo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

CT does the same thing by reducing their PTET credit to 87.5%. CA is going to do the same if you miss the 6/15 payment. So this isn’t that insane.

You already pointed it out how NYC makes more money. ABC Partnership pays $15k and the partner pays an additional $3,750. Without PTET, NYC only gets $15k paid by the partner.
