Our teacher asked us what our favorite animal was, and I said, "Fried chicken." She said I wasn't funny, but she couldn't have been right, because everyone else in the class laughed. My parents told me to always be truthful and honest, and I am. Fried chicken is my favorite animal. I told my dad what happened, and he said my teacher was probably a member of PETA. He said they love animals very much. I do, too. Especially chicken, pork and beef. Anyway, my teacher sent me to the principal's office. I told him what happened, and he laughed, too. Then he told me not to do it again. The next day in class my teacher asked me what my favorite live animal was. I told her it was chicken. She asked me why, just like she'd asked the other children. So I told her it was because you could make them into fried chicken. She sent me back to the principal's office again. He laughed, and told me not to do it again. I don't understand. My parents taught me to be honest, but my teacher doesn't like it when I am. Today, my teacher asked us to tell her what famous person we admire most. I told her, "Colonel Sanders." The principal is making me write this, even though he laughed again.

Big People Words A group of kindergartners were trying very hard to become accustomed to the first grade. It was the first day of class, and the teacher told them now that they were in grade school, the rule is, "No baby talk!" You need to use "Big People" words, she told them. So with that clear, she began by asking John (not Johnny!) what he had done over summer vacation. "We went to visit my Nana," he said. "No," the teacher replied, "you went to visit your grandmother. No baby talk! Use 'Big People' words!" She then asked Michelle what she had done over vacation. "We took a ride on a choo-choo!" she replied. "No," she said. "You took a ride on a train. You must remember to use 'Big People' words." She then asked little Alex what he had done. "I read a book," he replied. "That's wonderful!" the teacher said. "What book did you read?" Alex thought real hard about it, then puffed out his chest with great pride, and said, "Winnie the Shit!"

That has been an issue anytime you drop a vendor. You lose the ability to e-file prior year returns even though you have the software. For me it is not a deal breaker because most of the prior yr returns are 1040X anyways.
