RE: Poll: Have you used tax software to prepare your taxes?
I have used Tax software for about 10 years. I have used both Turbo Tax and Tax Act. I've stuck with Tax Act for the last 5 years, because it is basically free in my state for one submission, and now can be filled out online without downloading the software.

RE: Mix Cheap Wine With Kool Aid
(submitted via email)

Will this work with a heavy/hearty Burgundy. My spouse loves is Gallo Burgundy but I don't care for any wine except Riesling and I've never been able to find it as cheap as he does his Gallo. What flavor of Kool Aid or Crystal Lite do you think would go best with Burgundy?

RE: Litterbox Problems With an Older Cat
(submitted via email)

I am glad you responded to my post. I worked for a veterinarian over 27 years and I know this to be a problem in older cats. A simple blood test called a t-4 can check for any problems with her thyroid. At her age I would not be surprised if there was a thyroid problem. She can be treated with medication and have lab tests done every few months to make sure her medication is working correctly.

Thanks for your fabulous site!

RE: Refinishing the Inside of an Old Trunk
(Submitted via email)

I have a steamer trunk from the early l900s or late l800s . I found a newspaper dated l952 in the bottom of it. I'm trying to clean it to keep articles of linen in it. All I know is that it's been my family probably brought over from Ireland. I'm trying to clean it out. My mom use to keep our clothes in it with moth balls. It has a musty odor.
