So tacky with capital T
I would be so offended to get an invite like this, would not care where it came from. I probably would not go and if I did, hey $$$ would to me equal 3 but I don’t even think I would show up. I got invite before from relative, had not seen nor talked with them in years, invite to wedding, threw in garbage.
You will be taxed on capital gains

capital gains = probably big bucks.

I'm from the capital of scrapple, Philadelphia.
I've also never hard of vinegar on scrapple. Maple syrup seems to be popular the further west you go. I definitely don't like that. I see a lot of people using ketchup, but I consider ketchup to be a waste of good tomatoes. I hate the stuff on anything. When I was a kid, whenever we had scrapple for breakfast, we'd also have big, thick slices of tomato on the plate, too. I loved that. It has to be really fresh, really ripe and tasty garden tomato. Since I haven't had a garden for years and years, I rarely have the tomato with scrapple anymore.
We paid capital gains on a rental house sm
that we sold about 8 years ago. It was approximately 23% (I think-it may have been about 20%). From the way I understood it, capital gains was based on our adjusted gross income and you pay the taxes on the profits not the whole amount. When we got paid for the house, I kept back 30% and it covered the fed and state taxes. We wound up paying about 5,000.00 between the two. Hope this helps. I'm not an accountant either, just know from experience. The IRS website has really good information there.
I suppose I related to the rate of capital punishments

How do you like to close your letters?
I use Cordially a lot. I have a new job where I'm writing to business people a lot and don't want to use Cordially all the time, nor do I want to copy what they use.
I've received Best Wishes the most. I guess there are the old standbys, like Sincerely or Sincerely yours (capital Y in yours) but those feel weird.
Can Thanks count?
Closing letters
How about "Kindest" or "Kindest Regards,"?
my daughter got these letters from her orthodontist
still, to this very day, she is under their care and ALWAYS receives compliments, notes, and they are (the orthodontists) happily married.......yes I do believe the OP may be reading way far into this. Orthodontists (the male ones) are VERY nice/sweet because they have to deal with the same patient for years (in my daughter's case because her mouth used to be a disaster) and years.
Back off, chill out, and see the next time how you are treated.....right now, ya sound a little desperate to me...
Have a GREAT day!!!
Of course, dog responds to sound of letters,cause&

answers to chain letters.
I don't like them but I get a chill reading the gloom and doom ones and start to wonder if the person who sent that really is a friend. I don't pass it to any friends. Here is a funny one you can send back though.
I want to thank all of you who have taken the time and trouble to send me your silly chain letters over the past years. Thank you for making me feel safe, secure, blessed, and wealthy. Because of your concern...
I no longer drink Coca Cola because it can remove toilet stains. I no longer drink Pepsi or Dr Pepper since the people who make these products are atheists who refuse to put "Under God" on their cans. I no longer drink anything out of a can because I will get sick from the rat feces and urine.
I no longer use Saran wrap in the microwave because it causes cancer. I no longer check the coin return on pay phones because I could get pricked with a needle infected with AIDS.
I no longer use cancer-causing deodorants even though I smell like a wet dog on a hot day.
I no longer go to shopping malls because someone will drug me with a perfume sample and rob me.
I no longer receive packages from UPS or FedEx since they are actually AL Qaida in disguise.
I no longer shop at Target since they are French and don't support our American troops.
I no longer answer the phone because someone will ask me to dial a stupid number for which I will get the phone bill from hades with calls to Jamaica, Uganda, Singapore, and Uzbekistan.
I no longer eat prepackaged foods because the hormones they contain will turn me gay. I no longer eat KFC because their chickens are actually horrible mutant freaks with no eyes or feathers.
I no longer have any sneakers -- but that will change once I receive my free replacement pair from Nike.
I no longer buy expensive cookies from Neiman Marcus since I now have their recipe.
I no longer worry about my soul because I have 363,214 angels looking out for me.
I no longer have any savings because I gave it to a sick girl who is about to die in the hospital (for the 1,387,258th time).
I no longer have any money at all, but that will change once I receive the $245,000 that Microsoft and AOL are sending me for participating in their special e-mail program.
Yes, I want to thank all of you soooooooo much for looking out for me! I will now return the favor. If you DON'T send this e-mail to at least 1200 people inthe next 60 seconds, a large bird with diarrhea will crap on your head at 5:00 pm tomorrow afternoon. I know this will occur because it actually happened to a friend of a friend of a friend of a friend . . ..
Life is good...
Worn off letters do not bother me at all, I

My son could pick out all letters at 18 months old...
We made it a game. Everywhere we went, we would point out letters for him to name- on signs, cereal boxes, menus, etc. Now, we have him tell us what the letters say and read small words. He can read many words and he is not 3 yet. We did NOT teach the alphabet song until after he knew each letter because I think that it is confusing. LMNOP all run together and as a kid, I thought that it was one word. At any rate, maybe try some kind of incentive, like carrying stickers or jellybeans or something in your purse and point out letters in the grocery store or wherever. If she gets them right, give her a treat. We also play with flash cards and for each correct answer, Clayton gets to keep the card. When he has all the cards, he wins. Just some things that have worked for me.
P.S. That's "Fox"...hard to see these tiny letters through tears...nm

i'm proud of my worn-off letters -- confuses intruders
i've purchased many keyboards in my day (as have we all), and i just love it when folks come over and see my E, S, T and R are missing, if not more. when you get a new keyboard and read the box, believe it or not, they are listed as having a life-expectancy of 10 million Keystrokes -- doesn't take us long to burn thru that! right now, i've been using this microsoft ergonomic and all letters still in place (bummer). however, microsoft had some nerve moving the keys all around like they did --- just crazy to my fingers....
Not only have some of the letters worn off, but I have made dents into the keys. sm
My husband saw my keyboard one time and couldn't use it because he didn't know the location of the missing letters.
I like mine worn off so nobody else can use it! QWYUPKZX are the only letters left! nm
Nah, and I NEVER pass on those round robin letters for good luck, money, love, etc. if passed on in
