I just have to share this salsa recipe because it is too good to not be shared: http://themorganmenu.blogspot.com/2010/10/simply-delicious-salsa.html

This year I decided I was sick of doing my taxes by hand. It’s always such a pain to find the forms I need, print them out, fill them out, and then to mail them and wait forever for the refund. I made it easy on myself this year by buying TurboTax! Because I had income from both Texas and Utah during 2010, I decided to purchase TurboTax Deluxe. The software installed easily on my laptop (it works with Windows and Mac), and led me step by step through the entire process of figuring out my tax filing.

I don’t know much about filing taxes and maximizing my return, so it was well worth the $45 I paid to have TurboTax, acting as my personal tax expert, walk me through it – basically holding my hand along the way. I was able to get a return that was more than a thousand dollars higher than I expected! Plus it allowed me to submit my tax filing “E-File” which means I sent it to the government over the Internet and didn’t have to print and mail anything. So if you’re a rookie at filing your taxes or if you just want to make it easier on yourself, buy TurboTax and get it done on your computer in just a couple hours max. Here is a link to TurboTax, the same one I bought on Amazon.com:

There were some funny super bowl commercials this year, but I’m going to have to say the winner of the best commercials goes to Doritos. Here’s my favorite of the Doritos Super Bowl 2011 Commercials:

This is the best link that I’ve found to watch all of the 2011 Super Bowl Commercials: http://www.youtube.com/adblitz. Which Super Bowl Commercial did you like best?

Recently I read a great novel by John Grisham entitled The Rainmaker. It’s a legal suspense thriller that it hard to put down once you start reading it. I’m sure you’ve never heard this before about a book, but the movie doesn’t even compare to how great the book is.

At times The Rainmaker is funny, suspenseful, sad, and even triumphant as the Grisham end’s The Rainmaker on a happy note, despite dozens of unexpected twists.

I recommend it for ages 16 and up and give this book 5/5 stars!

The scams that I’ve already detailed here are all part of a larger scam operation that uses the domain representative.com. If any of you are looking for someone to press charges or sue, this is probably your best bet. I found this online, for what it’s worth, which lists some of the fraudulent email addresses from this scam domain: http://www.419scam.org/419-representative-com.htm

The scammer is back but not using my name anymore. His new stolen identity is Rodney Chandler of Proctor & Gamble and the email address of blujade725@gmail.com.

Here is his fraudulent email:

Hello,

The tickets are still for sale.. I am selling my 2 tickets for $600. The price includes shipping, because i am located in Scottsdale, AZ. I will deliver the tickets via UPS overnight (UPS fees are paid by me).
I would like to do this transaction trough eBay for protection. eBay will send you the purchase confirmation with details how to purchase the tickets from me. You will be sending the money to an eBay Agent. eBay will send the funds to me ONLY AFTER you will have the tickets in hand and give the feedback for our transaction.
In order to start the official procedure, I will need you to send me: your full name, delivery address and your eBay id..

I will check my inbox for your reply later!

Thank you,
Rodney
