(Side note before I begin: I still, out of principle, haven't hooked up the PS3 with the composite video output. If I'm in, I'm all in. Let's see if I can wait the few more days for some cables to arrive from Hong Kong!)

So here's the scene that all the bargain-hunters at Circuit City got to observe at about 4:30 this afternoon.

Just two blogs down I asked for opinions on the PS3 and if, 2 years after its release, it's worth spending part of my tax refund on. You spoke, I listened- BalekFekete pointed me in the direction of a 20% off coupon at Dell.com (and ironically enough, he is the same person who convinced me to buy the 360 and pointed me in the direction of this site. You gotta admit, the guy is incredibly persuasive).

Quick, highly predictable, and worth watching every second.

It's tax time so I am faced with the inevitable question: What am I going to blow my tax refund on?

I'm a fairly cheap bastard and I frequently back out of most purchases at the last minute so chances are I'll end up throwing it in the bank. Our refund is not huge this year and part of it will go toward renovations, but there's a part of me that's leaning toward a Playstation 3 (there's also a part of me that's saying "$400, are you out of your fucking mind?").

I am getting a jump start on my family's taxes while I wait for the last couple deduction paperwork to come in. I have a quick question though and I am hoping one of the 3 people who reads my blog can help.

When would I want to file "head of household" as opposed to married? My wife and I have one kid, we both work, and I earn about 60% more than she does. We typically file a joint return but now that we have the kid, I wonder about the head of household thing.

If anybody has an idea let me know. The last thing I want is an IRS audit because I fuck something up.

I don't. But DRUNK Paulie Shore = comedy gold. I love watching the news guy try to keep a straight face.
