Man,you guys are making me think,so,STOP IT! 
Ok,seriously,even if the sales tax is 8%,the sales tax here in Michigan is 6%,so not a real big difference if you add in the gas tax,Here gas is $2.16gal,and the cigarette tax is rediculous,a pack of off brand is $4.50,I gotta give them things up!And the price of real estate is about the same as it is here,so the way Im figuring,I will still be ahead.But even if Im not,I dont care.Why?Cost of a drive from my house to my daughters,$2.Cost of a Teddy Bear,$20,The look on my granddaughters face,priceless!And being around my daughter,A prayer answered!Oh yeah,by the way,My other daughter is back from the middle east!So,life is good,now if only I could find someone to finish my packing,,,,,

Shucks,I ran out of energy about an hour ago,not bad though,got up at 6am,drove 100miles,loaded my tools,said good by to my co-workers,mooned my boss,drove back home,then packed and loaded until about 7pm.Its just a good thing that I already packed my computer desk,that way the puter and I are both on the floor,cause if I had to sit at my desk and type,I dont think I would have the energy!

I can see KT now......
Laying on the floor, elbows planted firmly so he can rest his chin in his palms. Knees bent so his feet are facing straight up, looking at the computer screen as it was a Saturday morning cartoon.
