April 6, 2014. I did our tax return yesterday, via TurboTax online. If you haven’t used TurboTax before, it leads you, step by step, through various types of income, deductions and credits you might be eligible for. One of the items I passed by was tax credits for purchasing electric or alternative-fuel vehicles. If you don’t see anything, scroll down). My employer does not participate in either option, but hey, it’s a public school district. There’s no tax benefit to them. They alrea...So I’m out ...

Just a girl with a hammer: August 2014
http://www.justagirlwithahammer.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
My Mighty Life List. Friday, August 15, 2014. Garden bloggers' bloom day, August 2014. I have friends, friends who don't garden, who ask me, "What's new? What have you been up to? The kids from three doors down wander by and I mutter, "Look at how the bumbles keep to the agastache while the honeybees feed on the sedum. And I don't even know what these tiny guys are on the tithonia." They no longer like talking to me because they are teenagers now and also, I'm rambling about bees. Two years ago and it pr...

Cloudy With Chance of Asteroids
http://michaelbales.com/cloudy-with-chance-of-asteroids
Cloudy with Chance of Asteroids. February 8, 2013. Http:/ www.vimeo.com/58731907. NASA has reassured me. Scientists believe there are approximately 500,000 near-Earth asteroids the size of 2012 DA14. Of those, less than one percent have been discovered. As more of those asteroids are discovered and their paths tracked. Maybe the next close shave will be with a giant space rock named “Asteroid Bob.”. Sign in with Twitter. Sign in with Facebook. And the World Will Fall to Pieces. Not Lost in Translation.

Guns, Gods, and Schoolmarms
http://michaelbales.com/guns-god-and-schoolmarms
Guns, God, and Schoolmarms. December 15, 2012. I’m trying, unsuccessfully, to imagine my teachers of yesteryear packing heat at school to protect me from crazy people armed with assault rifles. Not that shootings at schools happened in my youth, a comparatively quaint time of many fewer guns and people who killed with them. Now gun zealots of many stripes want to arm teachers. Some even blame. Gun-control advocates (“ blood on their hands. As for my early yesteryear, I loved black-and-white Westerns....

The branch we share
http://michaelbales.com/the-branch-we-share
The Branch We Share. December 2, 2012. When my wife, Suzame Tong. Told me that she has a new colleague at Jive Software. Who has my last name, I asked if the young woman has ancestral roots in Indiana. My roots run deep in the state, especially on my father’s side. So when the colleague said yes, I set out to learn if we’re related. It didn’t take long, thanks to Ancestry.com. I hope more than Barack Obama and Sarah Palin, who are 10th cousins.

Back in Time, Virtually
http://michaelbales.com/back-in-time-virtually
Back in Time, Virtually. December 20, 2012. Can you feel nostalgic about something you don’t remember? There’s surely a clever word for the feeling, but I can’t find it. I’m pondering this, precisely 62 years and 68 minutes after my birth, because I stumbled upon the address of my first home. Thanks to Google Street View. I’ve can see the apartment building. In homage to Street View. The Greek word “nostos” means to return and helped to form “nostalgia.” Or better than. Regardless of the word, what the a...
