Where do babies come from?



People always think I'm joking when I ask this, but really I want to know. :(

Wait, bad question!

Your never ending supply of paypal funds silly:p

Hmmmm well considering I was banned twice, olds must have been embezzling the money I was sending him instead of sharing it with the rest of the staff. :Q

That information may be made public once the list of banned members goes up. But for now we do not have a way of publishing the list.

If my company matches to my 401(k), am I taxed on the amount they put in when I withdraw it if I invest the money after retirement into a college fund for my great-grand children?

Thanks for this great thread to ask questions in!

;)

If I understand what you are saying correctly, under the current law the investment would be treated as a gift, and subject to tax if greater than $10k per calendar year.

I am not a tax attorney, but I have done quite a bit of research on 401k's. Always verify with a tax attorney as the law changes constantly. Don't sue me.

As stated above, past actions will not be discussed, or who "punished" who will not be revealed.

That was me. Sorry man, my g/f wouldn't put out that night.

BTW: Ulfie, you seek to keep forgetting to update my Title. Do you mind? thx

Is there any way we can find out which mods went by which titles? Like Funny Mod, Kinky Mod, etc? Or is that one of the past things not going to be revealed?

I always figured it was all of them, and they signed it based on their mood or the spirit of the thread.

So now that you are all of the "closet", so to speak, will we still see funny and amusing Mod Quotes.

I had always hoped to get one but now it seems like that chance is gone :(
