Dunno, I filed back in feb but HR block screwed up and didnt include some forms. 8 weeks after I mailed it in I had to remail some stuff. I has to of been 8 weeks or darn close to since I mailed the other stuff. I keep checking the mail dissapointed. I had to cancel my wedding because of HR blocks screw up. I just found out my Mom has lung cancer and really need the $$ to fly to Nebraska to see her one last time. I am thinking that I will use an accountant next year. Where are you located?

Wow sorry to here about your mom. And sorry to here about the H&R block issue too.
I had big issues with H&R before... Needless to say I don't use them anymore lol.

I'm down in Woodridge IL. Not to far from you... If you want we could meet half way to.

sorry to hear, d3monic.

if i may make a suggestion... for taxes... search out friends that do real well with them and use the PERSON they recommend, NOT necessarily the firm/company.

i use h+r block and swear by them. 2 years ago they decided they were going to make us an appointment with somebody we weren't familiar with. we wasted 2 days with 2 different people and wound up starting from scratch twice only to throw out all that paperwork and find the guy we'd been using. it was a difference between several discrepancies, owing $1300 in just federal and... ~$6,500 RETURN. that's about a $7,800+ difference! all that and the first 2 took almost a whole day each... our guy had us in and out in less than a half hour...

so, like i said... it's the guy, not the company that makes the difference... BIG TIME!

yea...I have had good people there before. My usual guy doesnt work there anymore. The lady that did my origional file was ok but kind of fumbled through the software and took her about 45min trying to figure out what she did wrong to get the software to accept my return. Then I had to make an amendment to add my fiances schooling and a son I didnt have a ssn for yet (Im used to filing first thing and didnt wait for all my paper work) the Manager did my amendment. Didnt take very long and he assured me that I could file my fiance as a dependent and claim her schooling expenses (im still nervous about that one) Total I was supposed to get a little over 13k back. I am still waiting on 6.5k

You've made a great decision buying your vivarium from exoterra. They make really high quality products that last a while The only drawback is that the cost can be relatively high if you are housing a large reptile. Great job overall though! keep posting!

I'm sorry, but this entire thread isnt about what type of tank he used lol... Its about the awesome work on the interior...I hope my next build can look this good and natural.
